[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 276436, member: 198"] If they (IE and anyone else that can help fix it) would just listen then much of this could be solved. One of the points I'm trying to make here is that they don't listen. We leave notes on their computers telling them what needs to be fixed...NOTHING HAPPENS. We verbally tell them......NOTHING HAPPENS. The reports that show what percentage of trace each driver runs more than backs up our complaints. More than half the center is running under 85%. In many cases [b]WAY[/b] under. As low as 50%. Most of the other half run trace even though they know it's jacked up and end up logging more hours and more miles due to the fact that EDD has them running in circles. Add bad trace to the fact that some routes have multiple add/cuts and you end up with a route that can't be run on trace. Also....it's getting harder to skip sections in order to run a route better due to the fact that the trucks are cubed out because of peak. More drivers are having to stick to trace even when it makes more sense to run a later section in EDD first because they simply can't get to some of the packages. So you see.....the refusal of IE and whoever else that can help to listen to us is letting the problem snow ball. Once peak is over and the trucks aren't as full we can all start breaking trace again in order to run the routes more effectively. Or...somehow transfer to those rare perfectly looped centers.
