[QUOTE="sano, post: 426963, member: 8689"] I think there are 48 package cars loaded on the boxline i work on. Unofficially i would guess we are averaging 30-35 misloads per week. We were told that the average misload cost UPS $60. In other words, our dock has $1800 worth of misloads per week. Wouldn't it make sense to ad a few preloaders? It would seem that it would be a lot cheaper to reduce the workload on each loader so we have time to read the labels and have time to build a good load. I started about 6 weeks ago. I am on what they call the training cage which is 4 trucks. I have had from 750 to 980 packages so far. There are others on the dock pulling 5 trucks with 1000+ every day. The other thing that adds to our workload is the add/cuts. It is a rare day that each loader doesn't have at least 1 add/cut. I am not complaining. I actually don't mind the work.(the hours are bad though) I just wonder if it wouldn't make more money for UPS to ad a few extra loaders. [/QUOTE]
