[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 560652, member: 4653"] Thanks Dragon, that's how I understood it also. My question is "2009 RTE 1A" making any money? Does the center manager know if '1A' is profitable as a "stand alone business"? Here is a simplistic example of my center using 1 loop (A,B,C,D, and E) and part of 1 route from another loop, the 'E' route. When all routes are 'in' we are in 8.5-9 hours. Now they cut the E route and everyone (5 by my count) is over 10 hours. Add the 20 minute time bonus for going over 10 and its almost 8 hours of extra OT paid to the rest of the loop. How is UPS saving money? Wear and tear on one vehicle, yes, but how significant is that? I'm only asking here, but why not keep a route in that is all house calls and let that come in when done under 8? Wouldn't it save 8 hours of OT? [/QUOTE]
