[QUOTE="Harley Rider, post: 224556, member: 10872"] I use to gain time on all my time studies years ago. The new way they do them is absurd. You get no extra time for rural roads and they don't even make notes on the different speed limits. When they split off our center several years ago, an old center manager of ours came in and relooped the center. Almost my whole route is in the same loop! I have some residential areas that I can run 30 stops an hour in if I really hoof it. In the same loop are my rural routes that I am lucky to run 8 to 10 stops in an hour. I keep hearing about new time studies in the planning stages. Won't do any good as long as the loops are screwed up. My wife worked for UPS for 21 years. The last 7 years as a supervisor. She did time studies for about 3 years in the IE dept. She couldn't believe it when I told her how they conducted my last study. I can remember years ago when they even counted your footsteps and then ran an average for each loop. I hate having a negative attitude about UPS these days. After 23 years the UPS I remember in my early years was a lot different. They use to really care for their workforce and you were more than a number. Nowadays numbers are all that matter. [/QUOTE]
