[QUOTE="DriveInDriveOut, post: 1186086, member: 44954"] Speaking from the point of view of a loader, I think a lot of it does boil down to infrastructure. This time of year, it's all about quality. The focus is on reducing damages, building good walls, making sure you scan every package and treat it like it was your own. Two months from now, when our building is back at maximum capacity, all of that goes out the window. [B]Management shifts their focus from quality, to quantity during peak.[/B] Scanners magically disappear. Every wall is a "throw wall", which looks good from the front, but you're really just throwing packages over the top of it as fast as you can. Box is open and stuff is falling out of it.... just load it and move on, there's no time for that. They literally could not push more volume through the system if they wanted to. Infrastructure, and the workforce for that matter, is kept at the minimum really. It's all just for show. [/QUOTE]
