[QUOTE="kingOFchester, post: 1350831, member: 11246"] I could care less if I look worse then In my center bonus is paid at time and a half. So looking at it like that one would think that the two drivers running the exact same trip would make the exact same amount for the day. But if you dig deeper you will see the methods driver will make more money. He will most likely not be able to get all grounds off with airs resulting in more stops. Having to back track with the grounds will add miles. Going back to get grounds off will add more time. The runner will plan their day so that they are at their pickups 15 minutes (or earlier) where the methods guy may have to break off to get to the pickup and then have to return to the deliveries after pickups. The bonus driver will never get paid more then the planned day. The methods driver will usually be well over the UPS planned day. Even if the methods driver ran scratch or even a little bonus, he will still make more then the bonus driver do to his planned day being higher because of the added miles and added stops by not getting grounds off with airs and all the other things runners do to get done early. Same trip, same stops, same pieces the methods guy will be paid more then the bonus driver. [/QUOTE]
