I was intercepted by another driver who was finished and headed back to center. Poor guy went 20 minutes out of his way just to pickup 7 pieces of ground (no air). This was at 6:00 and I only had 12 stops left. The gas he wasted wasn’t worth the money they’re making off those 7 pieces.

Lol! I won’t lie, I was thinking ‘this guy miiight be a mass shooter’. But he said he was in the State militia and they were doing live fire exercises this weekend. Then I was certain he was a mass shooter, or going to be someday.
The guy was like 5’9” 300lbs. I guess militias don’t PT.

I can't believe how many stops you guys are doing. No way your making it to retirement.

It was a couple of bulk stops, a rural split, and several tight neighborhoods back in town.

I was saying that while in package. A driver would tell me how many stops they were given and I'd be like damn that would take me two days to finish. Then the driver would say , I know it suck I was out until 7:45 and my mouth would drop ( for different reasons).
I take one truck, deliver an area of businesses, go back to the station, then head out in the 2nd. The 1st truck is Wal-Mart, home depot, lowes, etc. Where the 2nd is my oilfield business. Left bld at 945ish and clocked out a bit past 930. I usually have a truck and a half daily at least since irregulars seem to be oilfield necessities with the hardware stores having all sorts of random nonsense.

267 stops/465 packages my first day back from workmans comp center manager knows I work at a very safe pace instructs preload to stock me no more than the 5450 hin. Well 13hrs later I bring back 69 packages/40 stops only delivered 110 stops that day. Delivered to a lot of apartments where I religiously deliver door to door. Also for the apartments I didn’t have fobs for i would call the recipient phone # on the package and ask them to let me in.. needless to say they are doing a ride along with me on Tuesday.. they are in for a big surprise!! I will literally use my hand cart for every stop with more than 1 package and anything over 35lbs. I bet I’ll bring back more stops than I did on Thursday and Friday! I feel bad for who ever is going to do my ride along.. not to mention the sup better not open a door or touch a packaged or ill grieve the time study.. btw prior to my workman’s comp i have the most hours in our District not just our center but our entire district!! I’ll make it to retirement in 34 years. Btw I’m only 28. But I refuse to run for a company that treats its employees as just a number!! I’m usually only dispatched with 92-100 stops anything more will turn into a 13-14hr day and management knows it. Long story short sacrifice 3 months of 60hr weeks and watch you’re dispatch drop dramatically! I don’t understand a lot of drivers logic bragging on how much of a 
they are delivering over 200 stops in 10-11hrs. Then complain when they get more stops.. btw I’m not lazy. I just want to make it to retirement in one piece and not walk with a limp.. am I wrong???

As long as you're following the methods and working a safe, steady pace, there isn't anything they can do. Make sure to keep your nose clean, though. They hate you for it and will stop at nothing to get you gone.

I follow their methods more than any other driver in my center. Needless to say I’ve had a target on my back since Ive made seniority! The only method i don’t follow is the folding in of the mirrors.. like 75/25 split 75% of the time I don’t bother unless it’s a narrow street. I forgot to mention I had 5+ missed businesses both days lol.. I sent a message at 1300 hrs asking list of remaining businesses and this is what I was sent as a reply
