[QUOTE="dudebro, post: 235561, member: 11234"] I'm sure you ARE supposed to check your 1000 shelf because you're instructed to by your management team so you do it. They feel that the 5 or 10 minutes overallowed they incur is worth the double check on the preload. But the standards allow only for reviewing your air stops in EDD and checking to see that you're not overdispatched. This is the standard we should be striving for, and on a few cars where there's strong trust between the drivers and a good seniority loader, it works this way. Most of my own building does what everyone else does, though, and sorts through the airs manually. But consider some of your financial buildings. We have a couple in my building that get 150-200 airs alone. The driver goes out early to those buildings and it's a big issue on the preload when he finds a misloaded air in their mail room. He doesn't have time to do it any other way. If we can take 200 airs to a huge financial account without checking, why are we checking the usual 15-20 stops like this? I know most drivers sort through airs prior to dispatch. But we SHOULD be able to trust the preload. This is my point about FIXING the problem upstream vs. putting a band-aid on it. [/QUOTE]
