Hello Everyone.
I am currently employed at UPS ( United Parcel Service). My job there, however quite simple mentally, is the opposite with physicality.
After work is done around 8:30 AM I attend university Full-time. with the long hours, i would like to make my job at UPS a little less exhausting, by the use of strategy, as I am pretty much in peak condition for the job....
So while I was going for a quick jog this evening, I began to ponder a "mathematical" approach ( and i now use the term loosley ) for a maximization of efficiency. As I began to think about what would need to be involved as far as factors and variables, I became overwhelemed, so to speak. The idea of any simple relationship usable in the situation, seemed, with every step, to fly away from my fingertips at sonic speed.
So, to all you higher math buffs and mathematicians, have you ever run across an example of this type of situation in a format that could be of any assitance,.....I 'm guessing probably not , but just wanted to throw it out there....
thanks for humoring me
Eric
