    Pt Air Supervisor

    Recently became a pt air Supervisor after being a belt supervisor. I would show up for PCM and set up my scanners, and complete my presort checklist. Now I need to come in earlier to walk air cans, etc. Am I expected to work off the clock for this? That doesn't seem right.

    Can a PT AM Loader sign a TDC sheet?

    I was a driver helper with one of the highest seniority drivers. He put in a good word for me and I accepted an offer for pre load. He knows I want to drive, and said he's still putting in a good word for me. He also told me no one is signing the sheets for driving jobs. I don't have my 30 days...

    What's in your tote every morning? ("On Topic")

    I tote next day air, smallest smalls, and air envelopes. I always tote people's medicines. Especially the envelopes half the size of a dollar bill. Anything the size of a softball or smaller, really. With smart scan, it's easier than ever to see the service type on the label. For drivers: What...

    Hot in Alabama (on topic)

    Is it normal to drive a truck with no air and most of the time no fan? We live in Alabama and summer begins in May and we never know when it will finally begin to cool off. Alabama summer's have high temperatures averaging over 90 °friend. Oh, and don't forget about the humidity.
