Qualifying during peak

[Methods Man]

Our resi routes time allowance meant that last year I was doing 265 stops in 10 hours and said I was 225 over

the biggest problem with that many stops is just the ability to find the hidden little gems in the truck

especially if the loader doesnt care, and frankly stuffing a 8 cube with 450 pieces would make me not care too

In my area peak is considered Nov. 1st-Jan 15th. If you start on or before Oct. 31st you are considered in your 30 day packet. Days worked during peak DO count towards your 30 days. In my supplement anyway.

I started October 29th as a preloader. I know almost all the drivers at our facility since they have delivered to my business over the last 12 years. The main person on my route now who has helped me with putting in a good word, etc was really pushing for them to get me in before Nov 1 because he said my 30 days would count during peak. I have come here for my answer and finally just asked my supervisor and she confirmed that it will since I was hired in before November 1st. Who knows, but just happy to have my foot in the door.

Ive got a coworker proclaiming our supervisor told him he's qualifying for 30 days on a route for TCD He started oct 15th hasn’t ran scratch even one day and now the center manager is telling him if he doesn’t run scratch he will be DQ. He said that our steward never came to him to sign off on a TCD position and this guy went to school as an air driver.

I thought you cant qualify during peak. does management have the ability to DQ someone during peak because they didn’t meet their expectations on their numbers?

What's scratch?

What's scratch?

An arbitrary and capricious number.

What's scratch?

The best mod ever.

You should see the jabronis they’re DQing around here who can’t run scratch on a freaking resi route.

Same trend here. We have extremely simple training routes, with no commercial stops or even apartments, all single family homes. When I cover one of these routes (there are two) I can drop anchor, work slow but still come in under 8. They’re that easy. However, we are DQ’ing 90% of the people who have their 30 days on them.
