[QUOTE="brownrodster, post: 459823, member: 10437"] We don't have enough info. You haven't shared many details at all. My numbers fluctuate a lot and I think it's shocking if he got fired for coming in low a few times but don't know if that's what happened. One route I know very well I can vary by a lot of stops per hour. On a fast day, with lots of resi, light businesses, and easy pickups i'll do 18.5 SPORH. On a day with heavy business deliveries, insane pickups, and light res I'll struggle to hit 16 SPORH. Pickups alone can take an hour longer on a heavy day on this particular route. They expect a 15 SPORH on this route and I've never gone that low in my life so they've never bothered me. Seen other people who rarely do the route hit 14-15 SPORH when they try it though. A different route I did last week for two days I did 18.5 SPORH my first day. The next day I did at or just under 17 SPORH. Same effort each day. Just different kinds of packages and bulk and air each day. So if the guy is just getting fired for coming in a couple stops per hour under a few times then I think that's extremely tragic. But we don't have enough info to even determine that. I once had a two hour stop. Full p1 with many over 70's to one house. Had to hand truck them all down a long driveway. I had an hour stop recently. 60 thirty pound packages to the fourth floor of an office building. It's pretty easy to swing a couple stops per hour in my opinion. But those instances are easily documentable. [/QUOTE]
