Down for sure, seeing 3 minutes of EOS time when my sub works cause they take the 2nd route with them instead of loading it up after the route is complete.

Either complain about the lower wage, or work 6 days a week so the route gets the proper time credits.

Either way USPS wins that one
Even a lot of our regular carriers had been doing that when working other routes. They would case up the vacant route before they're finished with their own and try to carry everything out in one trip.

Those regulars must not want the extra dough. Free money driving back and forth from the other route.

Wonder what percentage of split routes are done correctly after finishing assigned route.

I would assume the percentage is low.

Yep. This also has a negative impact on the route(s) that are being done this way. ALL routes are mapped with the starting point FROM THE OFFICE. The mileage and traffic control points that are "missed". Loading time NOT recorded on the proper route is another issue assuming that the carrier that is assisting and taking the second route or part of the second route is just loading THAT on his / her route loading time while loading his / her assigned route.
 
Just a friendly reminder and tid bit of info, because
we are ALWAYS building future evaluations.

today 9-5-2026 begins pp20
This pay period is the first volume capture for the FALL 2027 evaluation (Evaluation 10)

We are 13 weeks (1/2 way) into the volume capture for the
SPRING 2027 evaluation (Evaluation 9)

Only one more week until the current FALL 2026 evaluation capture is complete.
(Evaluation 8)

Happy consistent volume captures my fellow rurals! 🎉


ALSO while I am unleashinf things running through my brain at this early hour.
The new guarantee year begins on pp22
Oct 3rd, 2026
That will also be when this next eval pay and the up and coming RDWL sign up will go into effect.😘
