[QUOTE="blue efficacy, post: 158981, member: 6435"] At my building, Management makes Irreg tape very hard to find. Me, and a number of other Irreg Drivers prefer to place Irreg tape on all of the over 70 lb packages we see, so they are properly labeled in compliance with Article 44. Management, however, sees it differently. They think that it takes us too much time to do it, apparently, so they make tape hard to find. One of the Full Timers told me he had to threaten a grievance to find some one day. But here's the kicker. One day, an anonymous PT supe informed one of the other Full Timers that the FT supervisor that covers Irregs had a large supply of the yellow and black stuff in his office. Why would he need highlight tape? Hmm... Just goes to show you that management values production over safety. It's not like we tape the boxes to waste time. I do it so the loader, preloader and driver know to expect a heavy box when they go to pick it up. Often you can tell by looking at it if it's an Over 70, other times you can't. [/QUOTE]
