[QUOTE="Justaloader, post: 4343317, member: 77989"] They've been doing similar things in my hub. I'm a twilight loader - they've resorted to putting labels on bags that scan "good" and give the indication that it can be loaded into the trailer.....yet the boxes within the bag are actually bad. They want us to be checking the boxes in each of the bags now, all the while trying to keep up with the flow, etc. (If you don't maintain close to 400 packages an hour, you end up buried and literally don't have time to look at each bag due to them getting on your ass about not loading fast enough). I know "PPM" isn't recognized by the union contract. Unfortunately, in our building, the steward works on the airwall and won't come to help with a dispute or anything until he's off the clock - which usually isn't until midnight, well after all of us rank and file loaders are sent home. It's frustrating, to say the least. The other part that is fun is when you get a box that errors out (bad), you toss it out of the trailer, on to the floor (about 5ft below where dock is for the trailer). At the end of the night when folks are trying to get the PD cleaned up, irregs loaded, etc - it's not uncommon to see folks from other PD's in the building come down to lend a hand, and by that I mean they pick up whatever is in front of the trailer, and toss it in (as they don't know the reads for our area). So, if you scanned a box at 6:30 pm and tossed it out (as you should), and it gets tossed back in the truck at 10:45 pm due to someone trying to "help" and not knowing any better, guess who gets written up for the missload? Yep....gotta love the cluster:censored: of a circus this place can be at times. [/QUOTE]
