[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 754018, member: 4653"] I would agree with this defintion of bulk-stop. Many times you get the bulk stop that is not assigned to RDR, RDL, RDC FL4, FL3 etc because its not a normal occurance for that address. It really gets under my skin when my pre-loader, experienced or not(I blame the PT supervisor that trained him), puts 25 cases of books addressed to 65 Maple street and have 'zone numbers' such as 1 of 25, 2 of 25, 3 of 25 etc. in section 3000 because thats what the PAL/HIN # instructs him to do. However, why does he ignore 50% of the other PAL/HIN #'s (which are individual house call stops) instructing to load them from 3100-3999 on the floor directly under where he loaded 25 parcels for one stop on the shelf? I don't get it. Wouldn't he realize after the 5th or 6th package that all 25 were going to the same address and wouldn't shortly realize after that he wouldn't have any other room left on the shelf for the othe house call stops? Again, I blame the trainer but C'mon. I'm under pressure to make my SPORH base on the fact that the load is loaded stop-for-stop. I know this is a pipe-dream, but it should at least be 'section loaded' All the time we were supposed to gain from PAS/EDD goes out the window when the pre-loaded pulls a stunt like this as we were told we can easily do an extra 10 stops because "you won't have to sort now". BWAHAHA! However, in defense of PAS/EDD I never sort my truck, ever. Whether this saves me time or not is yet to be determined. Seriously, I never sort and I'm in a 1200. When my 18 inch selction area is empty I push all the packages forward and they are all in the order that the preload put them. Obviously, I spend time "digging" and this when I throw the next few stops forward if I happen to find them, but I haven't stood there and sorted the truck in 6 years. I may have a few times when I had down time waiting for a pick-up but NEVER more than that. This is what UPS wants, correct? I hope so because this my practice and its something I like about work methods... [/QUOTE]
