[QUOTE="Pkgrunner, post: 232847, member: 7207"] Where I'm from, the last car to leave the belt in the AM gets stuck shuttling up all the LIB and other misc. odds and ends to the "port-o-hub"(aka tp60) where they sit till the end of day with all the misloads that get scooped into them by the preload when they clean up the belt. Meanwhile, several drivers may or may not stop by the "port-o-hub" during the day to either pick up misloads(if they feel like it) or drop off misloads they don't feel like delivering. In short, its a place where drivers come to "smoke" packages(is that term universal or just a So. Cal. term?) By the end of the day, the Satellite drivers have buried the misloads with pick-up pieces, the door is shut and the port-o-hub is brought back to the building to start the process all over again, I have seen some packages in there for over a week, it's pathetic, and nobody cares. Most of us try to take care of what we can, but after a while and over a year of 55+ hour weeks we had to let it go and just pass it along for someone else to deal with--which btw never happens and eventually becomes such a big snowball that an extra car will be put on road for a day just to clean it up---isn't there an upcoming pcm on the domino effect???--ironically this will most likely have no effect and my situation will remain comically tragic. On a good to average day there will be 0-10 misloads that will be no scan service failures. On a bad day, I would guess we have had as many as 50-80 smoked packages we brought back in the trailer.
