[QUOTE="westsideworma, post: 323705"] yeah we've got a few of those running at our center in additon to a long skinny trailer with about 12 on each side. That on top of the 80 or so cars inside our hub as well. Needless to say we've outgrown our building. Most people load 4 cars, but since its "light" right now many have 3. On the boxlines 4 is common, on the belt/roller to car areas its usually 3 (though one of our doghouses has 4 on each side). When I was a loader the most I had was 5 during peak. 4 on the boxline dock and 1 on a set of rollers out in the middle bay....1300-1700 pieces daily, but surprisingly it wasn't that bad as we were given plenty of time then as opposed to now. My last pick before going into management was 4 cars 1100-1200+ pieces which they wanted done in 4.5 hours then, now they want it done in 3.5...near impossible. I could do it 4 days a week, friday I was just worn out and didn't even bother busting my butt for it, it was never good enough anyway. I don't know how the new loader puts up with it. They're always yelling at him for stacking, but what else is he supposed to do? I mean I had to load at 270 an hour (which some days I could, most days I could not...tired, just didn't feel like it, etc) to wrap that pull, he would have to pull over 300 an hour to load it which is to say, impossible for loading package cars.
