Probably 20k - 25k packages a morning, I think.
I used to sort HVD & LVD at a big hub that did 100k - 125k just on the night shift so it didn't seem so bad.
Update: it’s my second week. Apparently I suck so bad at preloading they put me on another belt. My job is to split the belt and load two trucks. Full-time sup came by and asked me how I was and I said the difficulty wasn’t as bad. I’m still tired because it’s a lot. All the while I’m supposed to listen to the other pt sup discuss safety and tell me to hustle and be urgent. I’m so slow. Is there any hope for me? Other than that, I am much happier where I was moved to because that last lady was hard. I almost feel like I’m going to lose my job if I don’t get better! (Or at least that’s what they make me feel like.) Thanks a lot for reading. I’m just venting.

I used to have the hardest pull in the building.
Nothing but mattresses, generators, and welding machines all morning long.
Sometimes I set my alarm for 3 AM, get out of bed, and drive by the building just to gawk out the window and laugh. Sometimes on real quiet mornings you can even hear the belt in the distance.
Then I go back home and get snug back in the bed and drift off to sleep.
