.maybe my terminology is off but after prolonged harassment and too much to relive i filed grievencesand told management the time was off.of course they pull the numbers on the previous two drivers{single 22-24 year olds}and compare records.somehow we never found hour long lunch brakes,this was before telematics or we would have seen failed pickup compliance,speeding,delivery during break,etc.i made it clear with my b.a. present i would not be held to those standards or numbers and asked for a 3 day lock,time study or whatever you may call it.the c.m. told me in the 3 centers he has run no one has ever been locked in over scratch. well i must have been his first.and guess what,i kept in in the 5-8 tenths range and harassment came to a stop.i am no longer on that route,it has become a training run and fallen right back to a run and gun show.First off, you didn`t force them to time study the "route". Routes are not time studied, areas are. Your route is made up of several areas that also include portions of other routes. From your posting it sounds like they did a 3 day production ride with you and you averaged 80 over. Believe me, you did not gain 80 on your route. I`m glad you showed them that the time allowance is definitely out of "whack" but they will continue to harass you, maybe not as much now. Just work safe and use their methods and you`ll be fine.
