DRA does help...FOR YOUR AREA. The additional stops should be relatively close, but not the same exact area correct? If those stops are on the map they give you, put little dots with the stop numbers on the package in that spot. OR, you can ask for a copy of the map with those stops. Then you can either do those stops along with yours or just do them last. If you're running late to your pickups, send a help message saying you will be late getting to your pickup route. DO NOT CALL!! Messages to dispatch are logged and you have proof you sent it.I'm new to FedEx and struggling with my route. I'm not familiar with the area and the DRA doesn't help because I keep getting additional stop put on me. I have no idea what order to do the stops. I've heard of apps that help but where would I get the time to input all the stops. Any advice ?
As MFE stated, it sounds as if you were not properly trained. Just because you have a map, it doesn't mean you can do the route properly and efficiently.
1 more question.....why are they giving more stops?
