[QUOTE="Satuirus2000, post: 2013988, member: 48065"] Nah, jams happen all the time because people in the unload don't pay attentin to weight limits or box dimensions. Plus, there's only so much volume a belt can handle at a time. UPS has flat out told me that they only have a guesstimate of how much volume they send down to a chute or posi. The don't know the actual number till it's already there. So that creates jams when too much volume comes down. Also, I'm not sure what you mean about pulling cans to the dock. That's not something loaders do. There's a specific position for that and they're called Shifters. They move the cans to the dock and the ramp people put it on the planes. Loaders shouldn't be doing that. The only cans they should be moving are holdover cans or tote cans at the end of the day, and those are taken to the unload. Loaders do get their own cans to respot, although technically the Shifters should be doing that too. But their supervisors don't make them get off their asses to do so, so whatever. [/QUOTE]
