[QUOTE="Box Ox, post: 1181365, member: 48469"] Unload felt relatively soul crushing compared to load for me. Was by myself in dirty trailers dodging poorly built falling walls and lifting heavy boxes/tires/appliances/etc above waist level nonstop for the entire shift. Yes, it was nice to be able to think about other things but it wasn't worth being paid less, the wear and tear (5x a week), getting less time on the clock than the loaders and having to eat a horse ($$$) every day. But I definitely respect (and maybe even admire) unloaders who love to unload every day. Load isn't fun when the belt gets really heavy but at least there's conversation with other loaders, a sense of shared suffering and the occasional break between the back breakers. [/QUOTE]
