At 4:10 a.m., the route optimizer promised a 12-minute buffer, then an unscheduled donut sprint consumed 3 pallets of flour before Truck 7 even touched the dock. What’s your best “optimization vs. reality” moment where a beautiful forecast got steamrolled by a rogue promo or line switch?
That ‘12-minute buffer’ lies 
; we pre-stage one emergency flour pallet by 4:00 — do you?
Quick example: we wired POS to routing with a tiny webhook — if donut sales jump >20% in 10 minutes, it throws a 15‑min soft hold on bulk picks and auto-pings @dispatch to swing the nearest sprinter to Dock 2, buying Truck 7 a landing strip. It’s been great, but if POS lags, “no forecast survives first fritter,” so do you have a sprinter you can dedicate pre‑5 a.m?
