[QUOTE="trickpony1, post: 205722, member: 1957"] Is the union doing anything to get those people back to work? I was a preloader in the late 70's. Every night the supervisor would walk up to every preloader and have them read and intial a misload card the driver had completed. One night I informed my supervisor that unless I was allowed to stay until my drivers drove out of the building or I was allowed to hire an armed guard to guard my trucks that I couldn't be responsible for what happens after I leave. There's a 1-2 hour window between when I left and the drivers leave. Anyone could throw a package on any of my trucks. Also, with all the splits and other load "adjustments", it would be easy for a misload to loaded. My supervisor didn't ask me to intial the card anymore. Did he falsify my signature every night? Probably, but I never heard any more about it. I would think that considering the high turn-over rate and the apparent inability to hire people to preload that management would try working with the people instead of being obnoxious. [/QUOTE]
