Those late loads are killing everyone. That is why the drivers keep getting started later and later. My center would get a late ground load at about 7:30 (if it wasn't late) and usually NDA didn't get sorted until after 8.
Boy are we in for it!

Leave a plate of food on the driver check-in counter.

Yeah our air also comes in late but that should not be an excuse to have everything else not loaded. But what do I know, I'm still living in the past.

Here's the thing with that...
We get in late w/volume every night. Twilight ends up wrapping later and bleeding into the Midnight. Midnight gets a late start and gets bombarded with trailers thus, bleeding into Preload. Preload starts late and well, you know what happens next...
No one can start early when, they're waiting on the prior shift to finish (or roll loads). Throw more people into an already clogged building and even less gets done, because you can't move.

That we do. Sadly, we won't get one. Atlanta is simply going to throw more people at it and we'll end up looking even dumber than we did last year.
We have two pkg centers in my building. Each has been tasked to put on 16 RTD drivers. My center has only managed to qualify 8 or 9.(they've disqualified none) Only 2 or 3 of them would've qualified under normal circumstances. We're talking about drivers that go out with 140 dense residential stops that can only get 45 or so off by 16:00. And, we're tasked with putting 8 more on.
These are the people Atlanta is counting on to make a difference this year.

None of the three buildings I've worked in are large enough to handle peak package volume. Atlanta will continue the band-aid solutions for short-term profits.

None of the buildings in Atlanta can handle peak package volume either.

On several occasions last Peak, preload was showing up before all of local sort had left.
