[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 861439, member: 18225"] What are you disagreeing with? Re-read what I wrote: I sent these in as misloads, and commented why they were misloaded. On these, if the preloader's going to take a hit, he's going to take a hit. Right, except I was referring to add/cuts from my car to another. When they take work off my car that I usually don't get to until 1800 and move it to another car that has to do that split between 1100-1200, [B]nothing's coming out of anybody's EDD[/B]. I don't know that it's not on my car, and the other driver is still ankle deep in package doo-doo because the route he's running should be in a 1000 but he's in a 700...he has no idea if these packages are in his car or not... Today was a perfect example... Since it's summer and volume is 'down', the route I was covering has an added 'split' which is otherwise on another route for most of the year... This 'split' is an office building, 3-4 businesses on the same street, and two adjacent side streets. All of this is PAL'D to FLR-3. So far, no problem. But when (only) one of the side streets gets the add/cut, it's up to the preloader to dismantle the entire FLR-3 section, which is basically just a jumble of packages (50+, business and resi), at the last minute. This route is a mess in the summer...I'm not sure who to feel bad about: me having to cover the route, the bid driver for having to run it all summer, or the preloader who's being handed 8lbs of ___ and given a 5lb bag. Kudos to this loader, he only missed one letter from the add/cut...which is why I ended up nose to tail on the same street with the driver who received the 'add'. Why send one driver when you can send two or three? See above...are you saying my preloader should take the ding because he was following inane directions executed at the very last minute? I disagree. I don't know how it is in your center, but in my center they're handing out warning letters to preloaders for misloads like candy on Halloween. I choose not to participate. As for out of syncs or flips, [I]those[/I] are the misloads I that I texted in. So, you know, we can make service on them. [/QUOTE]
