[QUOTE="soberups, post: 315464, member: 14668"] We are missing the underlying truth here...no matter what technology is used to perform a timestudy, the fact remains that the study itself was never intended to be fair or realistic in the first place. The intent of a "timestudy" is NOT to determine a "fair" amount of work for a given route.....the intent is to create a standard that cannot possibly be met unless the driver works off of the clock. If every timestudy were "fair' and every delivery route in the USA pulled over and took a one hour lunch between noon and one, 30% of the volume in our system on a daily basis would get brought back as missed. Expecting UPS to create a "fair" allowance is like expecting a casino to run "fair" games that give the player an equal chance of winning. The house makes the rules----and the house always wins.
