[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 754698, member: 4653"] I agree here. Work at a pace that allows you to produce zero misloads. Just follow the methods and if you never misload they will leave you alone. Why do you want to pick up the pace and finish 10 minutes earlier? You get paid by the hour, just don't misload. Think about it:if you misload 1 2-day air package that becomes missed it can cost UPS anywhere from $20 to hundreds of $$ in lost revenue(what does it cost to send a 100lb package 2-day air to Hawaii??) when you only earn about $50 per day. Do they want you to work faster to suck 25 cents out of you? Only for you to misload once or twice/day? I remember the old days when the pre-loaders had to memorize each load chart and every street on the pull. I very rarely got a misload under this system. Almost never. Now, I get at least one a day for the last 6 years. I'm guessing its something UPS didn't plan on when they went to PAS and proclaimed "Now anyone can jump on a pull from anywhere else in the building and it takes a lot less time to train people". Yes, thats true, but now I get at least 1 misload a day when before I got maybe 3 every year. Sometimes, when I get a cover pre-load I get 4-7 misloads and packages on the wrong shelf. So much for not sorting! No, UPSguy72, you can't fix stupid, but you can make it more stupid and thats what PAS did. Didn't it? [/QUOTE]
