[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 3403717, member: 63706"] I've been kicking around ideas that include improving visual cues so that misloads are more obvious. When things get really heavy, higher cognitive functions get bogged down so it's easier for numbers and letter combinations to jumble in your brain. I like the idea of color coding, but they have trouble keeping the black ink printers working. So maybe some sort of pattern specific to each route that is easy to recognize without having to waste much brain power. Still need to develop the idea further, but I think this is a better solution. Writing on packages and extra scanning just add to the amount of time it takes to handle each package, which should be the opposite of what you're going for. Print-on RFID chips and readers that automatically detect misloads would be a better technological solution. I understand that these things are generally above your pay grade, but I didn't spend a lot of time on preload, so I'll leave the more practical suggestions to others. [/QUOTE]
