[QUOTE="CTFEDEXER, post: 858324, member: 36073"] Hmm, that is very interesting thank you both for the responses. I have mentioned this to the contractor, simply because its cutting into my pay haha. As I mentioned before, I get paid per stop so essentially in my mind I figure however many stops I can do in an hour is my hourly rate... obviously I like to maximize that. What is interesting to me is that I have been told by my Uncle (the contractor) that Ground gets SLIGHTLY more per stop. His best friend owns ground routes, which is what inspired him to jump into home delivery, so my assumption was that he knew what he was talking in that subject.
