[QUOTE="Aquaman, post: 5205958, member: 68552"] Have you ever even been a courier? If you had you’d know that couriers know the routes about 2 times better than the average dispatcher, 5 times better than the average engineer.. and about 10 times better than the average manager. And on road route knowledge is still the fastest most productive tool this company has. Who’s faster when a detour happens or a random on-call pops up? A old veteran courier who knows his area like the back of his hand and just goes. Or a new kid who didn’t get properly trained because the software does the job for him, and is pulled over trying to look up the fastest way to get there on his phone? Oh ya and it’s a rural area with bad cell service so he’s just following a goofy LEO program that’s taking him down a road with a low bridge. A road the veteran knew to stay off of no matter what the dumb software told him. Or when the new kid is sitting at the train tracks waiting on a train because he doesn’t know to avoid that road around 4pm. There’s nothing superior to knowing your area. And it’s a proven researched fact that drivers following navigation retain less knowledge of how they actually got there. [/QUOTE]
