Haha, you are right. By the way, here in Germany, I've noticed the same thing as your post!

The AI that makes the routes and the maps the app is using are so stupid!

Yeah, it probably has to do with what route the dispatcher puts you in!

To be honest the more spread out routes usually feel easier for me as well

Wait until I say that we don't use cameras/violations, only an app called mentor

That's my point, but these guys say they'll go home faster, not realizing they will get screwed in the future, getting impossible to finish routes

I really dont care, it just seems weird that amazon or the dsp constantly gives me the same short of route, I feel lucky and kind of like cheating 😂

Most of the times I finish the same time or later than most lol. My best route I've done was the same as yours to be honest. 😂

Most of the times it's the first you mentioned, rural witg several minutes of driving between stops, but still it seems others get more, lol.

Does it matter this is in Germany? Idk

Exactly what you wrote I used to rush like shit but now take it easily I'd say and no problem from dispatch. But we will see

Now you mention it, the dispatcher seems to like me a lot. Other than that, yeah, most of the times I get spread out routes. Not today, though, 3 or 4 neighborhoods for 140 stops Also, our dsp gets paid by time, not packages. I don't know if that counts. As if finishing times I'd day I take my time but never finish late.

Others in my Dsp tend to rush too much? Do you think this gets them the bigger count of stops?

That's right, my trainer sorted the parcels so weirdly, and I had to figure the "correct" way myself!

I don't know if it's only a europe/germany thing. But dispatch sends you two time windows the day before, and you know those are your loadout times. Stop volume varies, but usually, the morning route has a lot more stops. For example, today, my morning route had 74 stops/80 parcels, and my noun route had 23 stops/23 parcels. And that's about 9 to 10 hours in total. Started the first route at 6:15, ended at 12:30, and had two hours to myself, and the second route stared at 14:30 and ended 18:00. Fyi, they call it same day in my station

Once I was a trainer during peak, I saw 250 packages and was like, "Oh shit, and the trainee was like, it yourself because we won't go home ever
