[QUOTE="Kraetos, post: 580076, member: 10269"] When I first started on the Preload three years ago, my first position was unloading trailers. There were four doors to unload from, and I always got the last door, the only one without an extendo it used the old fashioned rollers instead. My supervisor complained that I was working much slower than the other guys on the other three doors so I was moved to loading trucks lol...so I thank the rollers greatly for getting me out of the hell I call the Unload... The unload is incredibly unsafe, my second week there I caught a huge splinter on the inside of one of the trailers (because it has reinforced wood on the inside) that shot under the nail on my middle finger, it was a crimson mess haha. As others were mentioning before stacking the over 70's up high will crush you indefinitely... so as a deterrent most trailer unloaders intentionally pull towers towards them, then back away quickly to create piles that can't fall on them, this is great quality control huh? Oh actually today an unloader, a guy just starting his second day at his new job at UPS somehow hit his head on the sort aisle and bled all over a bunch of packages, I only know about it because my co-worker got blood all over his hands when he picked up a box about to load it onto a truck...so ya quality control and safety at UPS aren't high priorities...
