I think a lot of guys feel this way just won't say it. I wouldn't say I get nervous, but I do make more mistakes with a sup in the car.I get nervous on rides too but I dont know about 'panic" I just hate driving with a sup right there . I always just do stupid

I fight this all the time....an 8 hr Day on my route is 185 stops.....When I get my S&V they drop me to like 145 and I'm done super early, my sup. says see u could do another 40 and still be done by 5.... What he fails to realize is 40 more stops on the truck means more sorting...my biggest time consumer since I'm in our smallest truck and normally have around 300 pieces...I dig ALL day....normally run 1.5 hrs over.

That's only natural. You are not used to having a passenger riding with you. It is a very big distraction and your chances of having an accident go up substantially.
Any accident with a Sup on board are you dunzo?
No.
It makes them look bad. They will do what they can to cover it up.
Not for you, for them

Numbers don't mean . You can't get fired for numbers. Just be safe! You pay $20 weekly to have your job protected regardless if they try to pull any nonsense

There is no way they can lock you into a stops per hour, because every day the number of packages and weights of packages change. There are so many variables that can effect a route on any given day.

3 day rides are you best friend. I have had many and they are great. Do your job perfect and the only person who will get in trouble is you center manager. Standards do not matter. Glad you did good and don't worry about it just another form of harassment.I have a very poor time allowance on my route and was subjected to a 3 day ride this week. I usually run 45 minutes over allowed and am on the 9.5 list. I take all my breaks and do not work during my lunch. I actually was pleased to get this ride so I could show them that the problem was the time study and not my performance. I ended up running more over allowed on all three days than normal and stops per on road hour less than normal. I had a few minor issues with methods but the on road sup could not really come up with a excuse why we were coming in so far over allowed. We ran 95% on Orion and were under miles. So the Sup tells me the Center manager is
El Correcto
god is dead
only thing I think they could find wrong with my methods is picking up the board before searching for a package and not checking mirrors every 5-8 seconds.
