[QUOTE="laffter, post: 1262248, member: 43119"] With regard to preload and other local sorts, so so SO much of the processes involved could be automated through building upgrades. Based on my understanding of what I read in the national contract, UPS isn't allowed to introduce new technology if it means displacing an employee. This is bad for the company in terms of potential profit gain, but good for humanity and society in general. The guy at the unload who scans packages and slaps PALs onto them- easily automated. The same goes for sorters- even loaders in preload. If you lift the truck onto it's nose, you can have packages fed directly through the rear via a chute. The load quality would be the same as it is now. [/QUOTE]
