It is an archaic term, from the gold mining days.Why is a "salt" called a salt?
I understand "feeder" but think it's dumb.
One would sprinkle gold dust or actually shoot the walls of a worthless mine with a shotgun loaded with tiny gold nuggets. Then, sell the rights to the mine to an unsuspecting greenhorn.
Thats pretty damn clever!

My question is,if you find a pkg in your load that does not belong,what idiot would'nt scan it?Theres several other non delivery reasons to key it in,plus its a free stop!I like the gold mine analogy though.
No,"salting= deception"
Are you suggesting that our highly ethical management team engages in deceptive tactics????
Dishonest, but it works.One would sprinkle gold dust or actually shoot the walls of a worthless mine with a shotgun loaded with tiny gold nuggets. Then, sell the rights to the mine to an unsuspecting greenhorn.

Never heard that expression.Curious. Why is "feeder" "dumb"?
Feeder just means you're feeding packages from one hub to another. Correct? It's just difficult to try to explain to non upsers that it just mean semi driver pretty much.
Why do they grill a "toe-may-toe", I am from Texas and thats the way we say it, on a proper English breakfast? I loved the beans, mushrooms, eggs, bacon, toast, but not the way they treat a "toe-may-toe".you say tomato I say tomato doesnt quite have the same ring when typed does it
