[QUOTE="jibbs, post: 1314150"] There's a reason it says "Professional Package Thrower" underneath my name. They bitch when we stack out but the belt's cranked too fast to load one package at a time. Compromise: toss (or slide) boxes inside the truck until you clear enough of the belt to deal with one truck at a time, working fast enough to ensure you don't let any one truck get too out of hand. My rule of thumb is if I have trouble walking into the truck, I need to hustle harder to get the ****er loaded and clean, just so I can repeat the process over and over again on four different trucks. Normally I don't have to start doing that until I've got most of the truck loaded and I need to move packages to get the sequencing right (or, you know.. kind of close) which is probably about 2-3 hours into the shift. If I've got a box going onto a shelf section with free space then I make sure to only handle it once (or "OHIO!" as my first supe would yell at me during my probationary period). [/QUOTE]
