[QUOTE="Dustyroads, post: 641907, member: 22610"] I don't really know the answer, but I think it has something to do with the whole system. Lots of loaders have no idea at all where their drivers deliver. They never look at the real labels, because that is how they are trained. Back in the day, before secquence numbers and PAL labels, I had loaders who never, ever had a misload, didn't have any secquence numbers, loaded everything by address, without a misload. We had a loader in the late 70's who had a record going of several years of no misloads, and she loaded three trucks with 150-200 stops every day. And, not only were there no misloads, everything was always in the same spot in the truck every day. The obvious answer is to concentrate on one's job and avoid distractions. But, that doesn't seem to be enough to solve the problem. With the PAL system, we have misloads happening every day that would have never, ever occurred if the loaders were looking at the real label on the package. [/QUOTE]
