It has always fluctuated between 75 and 125. Problem is 75 used to be a 9.5 and now 125 is barely a 9.5. Pieces down 100 on the delivery end and almost 200 on the pickup end.

From 85 for an 8 hr, to 120 is not considered 8 some days. Did lose one lg pickup which avgd 30 to 120 0/70s, coz they moved. So close to 30 stops per day.

I'm going out with about 15 to 25 less.

I thought they would bring mine down also after paying my 9.5 grievances. They kept it low after peak but it's been creeping up as of late. Filed 4 9.5's this year so far, maybe after they get in the double digits and they add it all on my check they'll bring it down. Least that's what they did last year.

I'm working in the best interests of the employer. Thank you whoever came up with telematics you've made me an ALLSTAR and it finally shows up on a report for all to see.

Are you not amused?
I went from 110 being a nice 8 hour day, to 126 an eight hour day.
But then they did a new time study, 8 hours is back to 110 stops 130 puts me about 9.2, here however is were it gets sad. I now just get 140ish and they give me a 10 plus hours day, but its ok its not like I want to see my wife and kids.

We were told that every time we get a raise, every driver is supposed to get five extra stops in same 9.5 hours. The speed limit signs haven't gone up and nobody moved their houses closer to the street, I don't know who thinks this stuff up. I have noticed that I don't get any faster the more I age.

I just changed routes but I was on my previous route for 7 years. When I first bid the route I went out with about 90 stops. When I left a month ago I was going out with 160-170. Sucker that took it from me can have it. Turns out I think I like the grass on this side.
