[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1585658, member: 14668"] Dragon, Does ORION factor in delays in leaving the building in the AM? No. Does ORION factor in misloads? No. Does ORION factor in the need to meet another driver at a certain point during the day to take stops from him? No. Does ORION factor in the driver's inability to physically access a given package on a given shelf when his car is bricked out with 400 pieces? No. Does ORION factor in On Demand Pickups? No. Does ORION factor in the need to break trace in order to help contain another driver's heavy pickup? No. Does ORION factor in the virtual impossibility of making multiple left turns onto gridlocked streets during rush hour? No. Does ORION factor in late air or left-in-building packages being shuttled out to our delivery areas in the afternoon? No. Does ORION factor in the time difference between delivering 30 envelopes to a ground-floor desk versus hauling 30 boxes of paper up 2 flights of stairs when it makes its calculations? No. Here is an idea. I know it sounds crazy, but hear me out. If you want to develop a workable system to reduce mileage and calculate a delivery trace, maybe you should get input from [B]people who have actually done the job in the real world[/B] instead of pretending that the job is nothing but a game of Pac Man on a Google Earth map.
