    Peak fun times

    I'm a trainee and was sent to a completely different hub to help out during peak. The building is only 7 years young but it seems like they foolishly didn't make it large enough to handle the heavy volume. Anyway, today they made a mirror route ( never heard of this before) that took of...

    For nine years I've been on the preload and in that time I've learned that circling the label then writing the hin on the side creates more problems than it solves.
