[QUOTE="flatbread, post: 3065074, member: 60612"] I'm at an automated hub. As far as the actual accuracy and speed of sorting are concerned, it's a net gain compared to when I was a sorter. That said, not only are there fewer sorters to pay, but they don't pay the PT tenders* the skilled rate. I opine that needs to be changed in the new contract. Getting a new tender trained and functioning in my center tends to be a difficult task. * "Tenders" run the singulators to ensure packages go into the camera tunnel and automated sorter single-file.
