[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 785302, member: 18044"] Did Snow Angel get splinters? Was your grandstanding DM one of the originators of the Voodoo Time Studies that purport to measure work units but focuses only on the easily measureable stuff and ignores all the rest? Trailer loaders don't just scan and load packages. They "loose" lots of time doing all the other "incidentals" like: attending a PCM, setting up the conveyor or rollers, sweeping the trailer, waiting for the packages to arrive at the start of the shift, breaking conveyor jams, picking packages up off the floor that fell and putting them back on the rollers, repeatedly waiting for the belts to restart, taking a 10 minute break, taking a seperate bathroom break, getting drinks of water to stay hydrated, being told to float into another trailer to help out someone else while their trailer is left to deteriate, waiting for the flow to start after a break, waiting for the first loaded trailer to be pulled off door and an empty replacement put on, loading bulk, experiencing the flow slow to a trickle at the end of the shift, wrapping up the area and sealing the trailer, walking to the time clock, being talked to by a supervisor about missorts or safety or methods or even about the new hire babe that has a body on her that would make a bishop kick out a stained glass window. :surprised: [/QUOTE]
