[QUOTE="twoweeled, post: 2948152, member: 27108"] I know it's late, but I just read this. It's probably going to differ between hubs. But just like package, you're going to run into the blowhards that like the tough talk. I do this, don't do this, I told them this, and so on. Then you work there awhile and find out it's all BS, and that same guy isn't telling anyone anything. I punched in on an electronic time clock. Same as a time clock, but I think we used employee id and so on. I mostly showed within a minute of start time FYI. Then you sign in at the tractor. But you're already punched in, from the time clock in the office. Don't bet your life on having the same tractor, or the assigned tractor. BIG FIGHTS OVER TRACTORS AT MY HUB!! You'll be bottom man, so wait till the dust settles and take the crap keys they give you. PRE TRIP IT GOOD. DON'T BE AFRAID TO RED TAG FOR SAFETY ISSUES IF NEEDED. Package you roll if it's still brown, but in feeder you actually pre trip. I've loaded tires. SUCKS!!! yes, you will have to load them if the stop calls for it. (Unless it's changed) Over 70 lbs rules still apply. Some of those tires do get heavy. Some can be over 70 lbs. You can ask for help from the office. They'll probably push the threats and all. Make sure the local will back you before you push this. I can't count the times I've loaded tires in almost 20 years. Maybe 4-5 times. Not everything will be pallatized. Overall, I still say; GO TO FEEDER! The sooner you get in, the better. Trust me on that one. [/QUOTE]
