[QUOTE="westsideworma, post: 199322"] well from my perspective management in my building is starting to be over-run by IE. I've put my letter in for supervision, I passed the MAPP and now I'm just waiting. There are open spots but heres the thing. I load anywhere from 200-235 (depends on how much sleep I get really haha) an hour, the trucks are in sequential order if possible otherwise close as possible (at the very least, section loaded) and rarely have misloads (I have 3 for the month) however at the end of the day all my bulk stops get hit so I need to stack if I want to wrap, but I put it on a cart so its not on the belt most of the time. If I'm getting really hit by everything (happens at least 3 days a week)...theres no hope I have to stack behind the cars. Thing is its just RDR, RDC, RDL stops anyways so they HAVE to stay out til the end so I can load the rest of the car first....sometimes its just laughable. Another was where I had all of a bulk stops smalls (envelopes etc) in a tote...the IE guy gave my supe a hard time about that. Excuse me for giving a damn about how my trucks are loaded. He also gave me a hard time about not pulling enough PALS, I have a high volume pull, I don't have time to pull them all. I will mark the beginning middle and end of the section with PALs but thats about it. If I do have extra time, (VERY rare) I will pull them all. However when I tried doing it their way by leaving it in my cages to avoid stacking and pulling PALs I didn't wrap...and got spoken to about it. So now I just do my own thing and say screw it. My drivers have rarely complained (if they do its almost always because of the dispatch, not me), actually a couple tried to bribe me into being their loader again haha so I know I am doing the job right. I know they (current supes) pretty much do all the things that I do too so its hard listening to a bunch of hypocrites from above. I mean I help out my neighbors, I help new hires and still they delay (I'm not trying to impress them, I normally do this). I should note my immediate supervisors think I'd be a good candidate because I'm good with the new hires, I help my neighbors and I know the methods (don't always use them to the letter but I know them), I know most of the trucks (bulk stops, towns etc) on my line and the one I'd likely get (since I've loaded nearly all of them) and I know the right way to load a truck as evidenced by my drivers' comments. Its the upper management who seem to have the problem and unfortunately, its their call. I want to go back to school and build my resume and maybe help us retain a few new hires for once along the way, but until then I just do my job the best I can.
