[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 1040414, member: 14176"] I'd like to know how you can qualify that statement without first qualifying the allowances as an accurate measurement of the the drivers day. If they could be qualified, I go as far as to say 75 clicks is unacceptable. Unfortunately allowances vary greatly from route to route and are subjective and arbitrary. The day we start working in a controlled enviroment, such as an assembly line, is the day we should be held to a standard other than "a fair days work for a fair days pay". The 3 day ride is nothing more than a calculated bluff, using one dimensional variables such as SPOHR, when reality has the job subjecting us to a much more complicated equation. In the last 6 years I have seen my route require 25-30 stops more to dispatch, while the urban community in which I deliver remain virtually unchanged. What has changed? Only the companies unrealistic expectations, as I have went from a bonus driver to significantly overallowed. I have had every supervisor, my center manager, as well as my Division Manager on my truck to no avail. I point at that jump seat and tell them it is theirs and to stop by any time. [/QUOTE]
