Step 4 · Thursday, 6:47 AM
The run is solved around windows and capacity
Thursday’s four drops are ordered against receiving windows, service time, the shift and the truck’s 40 keg slots — including the ten empties coming back from Bluebonnet Brasserie, which is usually what breaks a route. Cinderblock Bar pushes the return 144 min past the end of the shift, so dispatch sees it before the driver discovers it at the dock.
What made this possible
→Empties modelled as pickups, so return-leg capacity is real
→Stops that can’t be served come back with a reason and three fixes
→Driver sees one drop at a time, with the dock note
