Sarcasm. Sorry you took me serious.
Ok so this is what I've gathered so far. Load the bulkier stops to the rear, utilize the shelf space and put the stops in order, stop using the crayon/marker..
How do I load the bigass boxes towards the end of my loads? (Sorry I forgot what they're called).
The guy who was training me just left me hanging after our shift ended and I still had aton of those huge boxes to load. Thankfully another kind preloader gave me a hand.
I just really need and want to be a good preloader. This
Why would you say that.Make sure you really mess up that
Why is it so easy for the preloaders to pull the PAL sticker but when I try to remove the sticker from the bar code half the label comes off.
We now use that method for Saturday Air. Most times you cannot read the smear or the ink blends into the background. No big deal as we only go out with 20 to 25 stops.
My point exactly as how the ink smears or trying to read red ink on a red background.Our center has had the imprinters for 4-5 years.
I'd work my non existent balls off to make it at least acceptable to the driver. That's the preloaders job. I know each driver is different and will change things around but my job is to please the driver, put things on the right shelf in proper order and get zero misloads as i understand it. Did you report the preloaders?This was my load on Friday. The was after I got to my first stop. When I got in my truck at the building, I could walk through it. My loader(s) refuse to lip load and this is what happens. No hard turns, just a leisurely drive to my area on the highway.
Note that, the six largest boxes in the front are for a bulk stop that is PAL'ed 6970. That is not 6970, that is FL1. There is also a NDA for that same stop that was PAL'ed 1030 but yet, once digging through everything, was found under a dozen or more house stops under the 8000 shelf. That white and red box on the back on the top right was PAL'ed 2700, but yet it's all the way in the back. Half my load was like that. It's like they loaded so much and then said friend-it and just started putting things where they saw fit or where it fit. Worst day I've had in a long, long time.
Looks to me like you need to have a serious talk with your preload management team. If you can find them after the last package has left the last trailer. Their job is over, it is the driver and Center's problem now. Clear the belts and close the back door and out of the building.This was my load on Friday. The was after I got to my first stop.

You do not work for the driver. You work for your PT sup, who works for his FT sup who works for his preload manager, who works for the Center manager, who works for the Division manager, who works for the District manager. And a few more in there that I overlooked. Do you really think you wanting to make a difference means anything? Just throw the boxes in the truck and get it out the door.
I know the drivers arent my boss but they are the ones who tell the sups how im doing sometimes and can make things much harder for me if they don't like my work. I've heard differently though. Depends.
if your loader doesn't make an effort to try to keep everything in cohesive piles. one day. I had to sort my truck every few stops to even attempt to get those RDRs out in time. And had to continue to sort my truck the rest of the day. I ended up needing two other drivers to help bail me out so I could make my commercial pickups before end of business. wherever and not caring wastes everyones time. If you can't do your job the way you're supposed to, then find a different job.
