Don’t do it. Had a screwed up Saturday route that was impossible to finish because the previous driver saved all his breaks till the end for weeks.
Taking all your breaks at the end of your day

I never understood it. We did have an OMS that would punch DIADs out for people that punched out for break and leave. Luckily they installed the ID scanners at the guard shack to help stop that non sense.

He’ll be on disability soon. What a jackass.
He actually got hurt shortly after. I think he finally learned. Good kid at heart.
Destroyed the route tho. They took away the juice pickups on it and added more resi stops to an already business and air heavy (pharmacies) del

I’d rather have less stops more pickups.

I hate pick ups. I'd rather have more stops.
Depends on what u want
If u like to stay out late & it’s safe out there especially if your resi is cake then do it
Pickups and heavy volume if you want to bring it in and have nobody mess with your planned day

How exactly did he screw up the route taking break at the end?

Because dispatch thinks they can now throw on an extra hour or two of work on this route because of the time he’s finishing the route. This person is clearly a runner as well. So if he saves everything till the end it screws the person who actually takes their breaks throughout the day.

An extra hour or two of work because of saving break at the end? That doesn't make sense.
Yes, if he's a runner - they always screw up routes. Move at your own pace and send a message if you can't get done. Don't put their unrealistic expectations on you.

nowhere special
If they are used to a runner skipping lunch and breaks they will continue to put more business on that route than can be delivered normally. They won't care as long as everything (mostly) gets delivered and won't change anything until you start taking your breaks and have missed stops.

Yeah well if he’s finishing the route at 10 o clock then takes his breaks at the end he is now clocking off at 11. Why is this hard?

You’re clearly *. Taking breaks at the end has no affect on the route.

This definitely has more of an effect on heavier business/pickup routes. I use to run on my route, might take 15 mins of break, if any, prior to pickups and take the rest later. So, naturally, dispatch would up the stop count and put more business stops on it from a neighboring area. The result was that some days taking even just 30 mins of break at around 12 or 1 meant you may not have room for pickup volume.
AM time when u leave building & return time
mattersIt’s cheating if you’re making production. Fuera !
I’ve used a meetpoint even if I was done just bc I had a 20 left to take on road

management would have newer drivers sheet up missed as future or tell them to throw it on the bottom beltsI wouldn’t fold
I’ve seen a print out stop for stop time stamps on their planned day. I’ve never seen an auto planned two 15 and a 30 deducted. We’re over an hour everyday the moment we drive out
