Review Confusion

Post by BeamishStout »

Had our duties revised very early on post 2010 agreement (in 2011 I think) and now finally about to have our 'revision'. Been doing a park and loop with CDV with another OPG since the duties were set up in 2011. 'Tweaked' the duty originally spewed out by the Pegasus planning tool (is this the same as Georoute 2008?) and, so long as we are out at our scheduled time (0940 Mon-Fri) we can do what we are supposed to do within the allotted time (90% of the time) . The delivery points and duty have remained the same since this initial route assessment.

Now comes the interesting part. Just had a 1-2-1 initial meeting today with one of the gaffas (me and my regular partner). He informed me that the route now takes 4h 40m to do (according to what ????) and also gave me figures for packets and travelling time. When I include their travelling time the same route now takes 20 mins less than it did 3 years ago. WTF?

Any advice before I go in to the next meeting with the planner?
