[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 754086, member: 18708"] As a preloader, I have to say that it is not that easy to make adjustments on the fly. With splits (or as the new school says add/cuts) coming in the middle or end of the work day ( I get 2-3 add/cuts per day, 15-50 pieces on 4 trucks) and then heavy zones not coming until also later in the AM, you simply can't do these things on the fly. We are not given the proper time allowance to go back into the trucks at 7:30am and start moving around stops. If I get a zone of 50 boxes going to one stop in the 3000 section and it happens at 6:30am and 3000 is already full on floor and half of shelf, you have to get creative. Yes, there are probably preloaders that don't give a damn and this doesn't apply to them. There are also skilled preloaders that know what they are doing, yet they don't have enough time to even blink nevermind tear apart trucks to improve the load. I get roughly 1000-1300 peices per day, 4 trucks. Allegedly the 4th heaviest pull of 60 in the hub. Time allowances are bogus just like for driving. The load quality is what it is, just as the time allowances are. [/QUOTE]
