Mine is the same way. I've had some fun with that when the on road goes crying about overallowed. "I beat your time, I beat your miles, ran 100% trace and your bogus time allowances say I'm late. When you are on the truck with me, I'm 120 over. Stop talking."
you know the dispatcher can change the DOL to whatever he wants right?
any FT sup in your building has the access to do it
That would be far from interesting.
ok captain obvious but that doesn't change that it can be fixed and that if it's not it's a reflection of your dispatchers work ethic
i get what you're saying, but life is an endless cycle of fixing or upgrading things that others have done
so if your toilet breaks because your turds are too big, are you going to sit there and let it overflow because "it should have been designed right in the first place"
It will help you have late air, missed commercial stops and have you either 2 hours early or late for pickups
When routes are cut and extra work is added in your truck to say the 8000 section, Orion has a difficult time recognizing when you are closest to those stops during the day. It wants you to do those stops at the end of the day even though you were closer to them earlier in the day. If the dispatcher had the time he would place those stops in your car with the stops you already have that are close to the split you got, that's all also dependent on the skill of your dispatcher.
We had them set up perfect. Ever dispatcher that comes in changes things to his liking, screwing up what we spent years fine tuning. Also, some like to change your lunch time to zero and or change your furdo or air cushion in a day to day basis in order to reduce the total miles for the center. Makes me wonder what the original vOrion rides were for, if the dispatcher is going to go in and change it day to day?
All your responses remind me of when Apple released a phone with terrible reception, then told people it's because they're actually holding the phone wrong.
