[QUOTE="Aiden, post: 1001468, member: 42656"] Hello. First off take a breather. Don't stress your self as Pre Load, else you will slow down even more. To address the Crayon topic: I break mine in half, then peel the paper off. This way i don't have to worry about readjusting so i can write the sequence number. The other advantage of breaking the crayon is leverage. Because of the smaller size you can slide it in between your fingers when lifting an awkward or other wise heavy package. Using this method i come home with crayons all the time now. I'm not sure how big your center is or how long your conveyor belt goes. My center's conveyor belt is long enough for 7 cars on each side. I am at the head of the belt on my side with 3 (700-900) total package cars. When i get to work i hit the load sheet up and set them in my cars. If you don't have one ask for one. Find the bulk for the cars and remember their numbers and double check when you need to. Bulk is going to be your main priority. That or 5-6 50lb boxes at once. If you load those individually(don't stack them) it will slow you down. Drop them to the floor and stack (Floor stacking is Ok temporarily). All about pace. Don't worry about making the shelve boxes PERFECT 1,2,3,4,5. The driver has the sheets that tell them how many boxes per stop. Get it close to each other that is all. 1,1,2,3,2,3,4,5 Only right the number on the box if the driver cant see it and you know he won't. Always keep your path walk able in the car. What helps me up front when getting my packages is i split everyones first. I may see my box but i keep going until i hit the spa or in your case might be the next person's car. I'm sure you can stack a few 2lb boxes on a 50lb box. If your super yells at you for that you need to file a complaint for harassment. If you focus on speed more then accuracy or location because you can't do both. Focus on speed. If you get it done quick enough and know your wrap up will be quick and easy, get in that truck and then start your organizing and labeling. Number 1 thing to keep in mind is it's your third day. Not sure how much my information will help you but I've only been with the company for 2 months. Give it a week, your body will get used to it and your mind will just start mapping the trucks and the spa locations. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
