[QUOTE="dudebro, post: 235559, member: 11234"] In your world, if everyone drove for 10 years before they could say a word to anyone, we wouldn't really have enough management. I respect the seniority and the time you put in that puts wear and tear on your body, but I drove for over a year through 2 peak seasons, and I did run scratch more often than not on a route or two once I knew them, not to mention driving school, pkg ops sup training, IE training, and time study training, so I think I understand the job as well as anyone. 30 stops on each 1000 shelf doesn't happen too often. This would be a 240 stop dispatch not including pickups. My district ran 131.2 stops per metro driver LAST WEEK, and that includes the pickups, so the deliveries are less than half that. I look down a lot of cars in the morning and they're not all bricked out like that. So yea, you could walk down the line and find me probably one car out of 50 like that, but most of them aren't. And they CAN, 95% of the time or better, be loaded in stop for stop order. Just because we put PALs on packages, things don't get better until we stop allowing the preloader to fling the package with HIN 1718 on it in the general vicinity of shelf 1000 from outside the car.
