[QUOTE="magoo57, post: 268142, member: 4661"] Brownbox and any other persons just learning to load the package cars:Remember that the walls of the package car are not sacred. Huh? By that I mean you can tape info on the walls! Start out with no more than 10 sheets taped to the walls of any truck at any time .Write large on a full sheet of paper the main street in that truck and the block breakdown. Also [U]draw[/U] a symbol if that helps( a figure of a tree for an Elm Street, A 20 second drawing- in [U]green[/U] crayon- of a one-dollar bill for Washington Ave.,etc). The human mind comprehends symbols [I]500 times[/I] [I]faster[/I] than it does writing. This loading system sounds childish and the driver may look askance at what you have done to "his" car, but he will in 10 seconds figure out the benefit.(Another benefit of this "wallpapering" is to remind you of which car you are in. Don't deny that you get confused at which car you are supposed to be loading.) So after a week you've got the splits for elm street down. Now pull yhose sheets of paper down. Put up NEW sheets with the 10 next most popular streets and/or splits. Again, use symbols if needed. Now oldtimers will notice that this system was developed prior to the big, bad , mean ol' PAS. But the system still works because PAS and what the driver requires are not always the same thing. And you can always get the driver to confirm your placement of the interior signs. He is going to bitch, but he is the person most rooting for your success as a preloader. [/QUOTE]
