Gap Reports

[Cheesehead]

What's with obsession with gap reports as long as you don't have lates regularly? I'm constantly getting my chops busted even when I'm at high 90s percent.

I've seen a gap report once in the past year. Life is good.

Too big according to my manager. Guess I shouldn't have stayed in the store so long. Lol.

Mind games cheesehead.. they worship the almighty percent # but don't give a rip if one percent is a couple minutes or 10+ minutes. Figure up how many minutes you are actually short and go from there.

There could be a couple reasons we don't see reports... either doing something right, cheating, lazy management, other?

Take a swing position if you don't want to see a gap report

It doesn't snap back like it use to.

Ask them to show you how to do your route if they aren't happy with your performance.

Now why would you want him to say a fool thing like that?

We got GAP reports every day for a while. Haven't seen one in a few weeks though.

The gap reports are generally more gentle than the cheap one-sheet-at-a-time-one-ply that we have in the crapper.

GAP report is simple to understand, especially if its on the computer(not printed)
sit with your manager, and have him/her open it.
If it says your "GAP" was excessive at 8 minutes between stop 2-3
then you can click on the stops, and it will bring up BING maps.. and show you the route and time.
if bing says 8 minutes you are fine...
Now if bing says it should have taken you 2 minutes to get to the next stop, then you should be ready with your explanation..(had 50boxes to offload, etc..)

the GAP tool is pretty useful, and pretty much the best tool we have to gauge performance, because you can't fool it.

Now as for GAP reports being put in boxes daily, that's just a manager being told what to do, if they want answers they need to sit with the driver at the computer and discuss.

Guess I spoke too soon. Found a gap report waiting for me in my truck this morning. Lol. Looks like I dropped under 100% yesterday, for the first time in a long time (not on a Monday).
