[QUOTE="Smashmouth, post: 3728295, member: 73661"] I used to load 5 cars on a staight conveyor belt, but that was over 30 years ago. Back then, the a.m. supervisor measured the belt speed every morning before we started, and monitored the flow coming out of the feeders and would actually tell the unloaders to slow down a little if the flow was too high. I had to memorize all the sequence numbers that corresponded to all the streets on the routes i loaded and also keep a count of how many stops were in each car. Now days its get it out of the feeders as fast as possible. Computers number the boxes and keep stop counts. They dont care about anything but their precious numbers. Get it out and get it in and let the drivers deal with the mess. [/QUOTE]
