[QUOTE="SubPop79, post: 1203471, member: 50115"] I have apparently been offered a promotion to pick-off after a year and some change of working at UPS. I was given a study packet with the States, zips, and shipping times of our 4 trucks, for example OK 730-749, 2DA, 3DS Only, but there are as many of you know, uh, lots of numbers. Last night I was able to memorize all the states my belt takes and where they go, which was a little tricky considering I had to learn 35, and I did this my using mnemonic devices, but I don't think that will work with the zips and the shipping method. How did you guys memorize this stuff? This is just my PD, so I have no idea how someone would learn the entire sort either. Is there a way to make sense of it all? How did you guys do this? I feel like, that just to learn my belt, I need to learn the other belts, so as to learn by elimination so to speak. I really want this position because it seems more fun and less physically demanding than loading, at least for the 45 minutes I did it yesterday, and obviously because it pays more. Is this all just a matter of memorization, or is there some sort of trick to learning it. Like I said, mnemonic devices worked for learning all the states, but that is also smaller bits of info than the zips and such. [/QUOTE]
