[QUOTE="TechGrrl, post: 586921, member: 4932"] Got to agree with P-Man here: most large buildings have automated weighing and sizing tunnels, and the adjustments are done automatically. The payback on the automation was originally estimated at about 10 minutes (I am not kidding) for Louisville alone. This was 15 years ago. Paying human beings to do this is a waste of time and money. The laser scanners and scales are more accurate, and don't slow down the flow of packages. We don't do it for 100% of the packages, but computer analysis of adjustments generally pinpoints repeat offenders for followup. [/QUOTE]
