[QUOTE="preloader, post: 232367, member: 7558"] Lemme start by stating that if you remove the top 5 senior preloaders at my building the average is about 6-8 months seniority and like many of your buildings im sure they get NO training really. The center manager assumes that the lil sticker should say it clear enough to the loader where it goes, period. Because of these factors, we have on average 50 misloads per day, scattered over 54 routes. Our preload sup was running the misloads til 8pm most nights until she seems to have snapped and quit (mgmt wont tell us about her status) Basically, she was working from 3am-8pm everyday, and like was stated earlier, the union wouldnt fight it as long as no one lost their jobs. Honestly, theres no incentive to the loaders to do better. If they have misloads, it will be fixed and maybe after a few hundred a warning letter will be issued. If they stand around and stack till the drivers get ready to leave, the sups and drivers will load the cars. But if they do decide to give 100% and bust their butts to get tthe stuff in, and into the right cars....not even an "atta boy" from a sup. Our District manager decided about a month ago that should our building have one day without misloads, we would all get UPS polo shirts (oh boy!) ...i think he coulda offered us BMWs, woulda gotten the same results [/QUOTE]
