[QUOTE="IWorkAsDirected, post: 287062, member: 13559"] Thanks everybody, and yes they did plan to implement pas before peak, but our district manager pulled the plug on it, we would have been leaving at noon, I'm sure. Yes I know we'll have alot more work out on car. The IE guys met with each of us back in Oct to show us how we would be running our routes. I was a dumbell and actually thought they were looking for some driver, area knowlege input, but silly me, I was just supposed to watch this little cursor on his laptop go through my route. I told him it wouldn't work as I have businesses in all the areas of my route and businesses he said would be in my pm delivery area would end up missed. He didn't want to hear it said there was no way to arrange it so I could do those businesses in that area when I go up there to do air. He also said he couldn't seperate out those businesses from the area and just have me deliver them, it was either the whole area or none. No other drivers are close earlier in the day to deliver them. I told him I definately was not going to do 200 stops everyday because I had to do the whole area, he said you get overtime don't you? I said I don't care if they pay me triple time I don't want to work 12 hours every day been there done that. He told me to talk to my center manager about that problem. What a bunch of stupid dorks. Looks like my last year will make me alot of money although I will have no life and no energy. I WILL file ove 9.5 grievances and probably get harassed. The guy who works next to me on the sort filed a grievance over a sup working on the preload and has been made miserable by the *(&%$ for weeks now. Any suggestions? How do the adjustments work for dispatch with pas? It has taken me years to get them to realize there is more to a planned day than stop counts, such as bulk, miles etc. So what do you do? For example, Friday I worked 11 1/2 hours after pulling 30+ stops because of bulk and miles and we left late because of late air.
