[QUOTE="BadIdeaGuy, post: 3648586, member: 73381"] [USER=72388]@Jody43[/USER] welcome to hell. :devil3: That 31st step you'll take is a doozy. Heck. That first day without a supervisor will be rough enough. C'mon. Figure it out. The supervisor doesn't want to be out till 8. And certainly doesn't want to look like an idiot in front of the new guy. So their solution? Crazy light training, especially the first couple weeks. I had an air driver try to go through training on my area in the last few weeks. That truck went from 300+ pieces to <150. Easiest few days I've had loading my area in ages. Unfortunately, the guy couldn't figure out odds and evens (seriously), for the sides of the street, so they threw him back to his original spot. And the numbers shot right back up. So double your current expected workload. Lose the air help. And get ready to catch hell when you don't do everything just so. But it's still a decent job. Maybe you'll do ok, but I'd take advice from the older drivers, instead of treating them like they don't know what they're talking about. Or do whatever. Your knees/heart/back, not mine. Last advice. Treat your preloader right. We have the ability to screw you royally, if you don't. [/QUOTE]
