Do the same thing when you deliver to a house or business. Look at the address label not the PAL sticker. It will save you a lot of embarrassment the next day.
I think I might get fired soon...

This is what I want. I want to be a driver. So why set my sights higher? I will be working towards becoming an HVAC tech too just in case. UPS isnt the only dream job I have. But the school help they offer is nice.

I'm a new hire (been doing preload for about 3 weeks now, but it's my 4th week at UPS). I think I'm gonna get fired.
Let me explain: I'm not very quick— I load pretty good sometimes, but often the drop will get packed and they'll need to have a more experienced loader help me out. I usually do 4- 5 trucks. Another thing, I keep getting aton of misloads (usually it's 1or 2) the other day I had 8 misloads in total and my sup did not have time to scan so those drivers had to put up with my

Maybe it's the foundation to moving up to a Driver? That's what the interviewer told me.

Pay no attention to Dean. He only thinks he knows everything.

I feel if you want management to take you seriously and give you opportunities to advance and be a driver you have to work hard and get them zero misloads everyday as a preloader. I just know my center manager looks at the numbers everyday and if you
ing up alot i dont think they or he will give you the chance cause you cant even do your job as a preloader let alone doing the job as a driver.

Sorry chief doesn't matter how terrible of a preloader you are
It's all about seniority

Whoa, hold on there cowboy. This is a union shop. Management doesn't get to just randomly ask part-timers if they want to go driving; it's based on seniority. Some people have put in 10+ years before they got the chance to drive, because that's how long it took them to climb to the top of the seniority list. Others, only a few months.
It's true that management may talk amongst themselves and name names, as to who would be a good or bad driver, but unless you're the worst of the worst, you're probably not going to auto-DQ the moment your name comes up. Likewise, if your current manager can't say enough good things about you, you're still not guaranteed anything but a chance.

Is it helping with the misloads? Please say yes....Please.

The only thing that will reduce misloads is to reduce the preloaders work load and increase the hourly rate to promote the sense that their job is important. Now preload management is all about getting the packages out of the trailers and into a package car and out onto the street. Damages and misloads is someone else's problem because the preload manager and sups will be at home snoozing.

New Hire.
I agree. They act like you get paid $30/h when it's just minimum wage (or near that). Who the hell wants to work 110% and leave work needing an immediate shower everyday for the same amount that Taco Bell employees get paid? I go to work everyday, work as hard as I can and I still get told that it's not good enough.

I know you have too many trucks. 4-5 trucks is freaking ridiculous.
