Go slower, If they can see that you guys can keep the times low they will always schedule less. I take my sweet time and let things build up

Imo it's ridiculous to be worried about drive times at *any* store right now, and if your management is making you worried, then that management is out of their minds, because all that's going to accomplish is burnout. It's gonna get so bad baristas are just gonna erupt into flames 😣

Do low drive times give the higher ups bonuses? I refuse to do extra work so someone can get more money

I'm really not sure on this tbh, and I've seen partners and SSVs say both yes and no, but I haven't been able to substantiate either way. What I do know is that DMs will give SMs a lot of flack for not having low drive times, and I've also seen SMs get really competitive with other SMs in the district over how low their drive times are in comparison with other stores. I 100% feel you though, I wouldn't want to do it either, especially if my team is not going to get any recognition for it
