[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 5304599, member: 23516"] I can't answer for Ground engineers or anyone else who works for Ground. Express is concerned with onroad hours instead of miles, though miles translate into hours, so there's that. Part of it aims to balance some routes based on volume, staffing, and so forth. For instance, Route 1 has 6 hours of work (instead of 8) one day and Route 2 has 9.5 hours of work (instead of 8), so Route 1 may get some of Route 2's work. That's a gross oversimplification but that's part of what it seeks to do. I don't know what the break even point is for it to be effective. Results are decent in some areas and horrible in others. Time will tell. [/QUOTE]
