[QUOTE="RockinRobin, post: 1226859, member: 50986"] Power-Loading for 10 or 20 minutes will get your blood flowing. I've loaded up to three trailers a night. I've heard some hubs do 4 or 5. Can't imagine that. I'm in great shape and was an endurance athlete and a weight room junkie before UPS. The secret is I look at it as a Gym membership that they pay me for. Not a lot. I'd earn more working part time at Lowes, but I'd not get the workout. To the OP, You'll do JUST FINE! Listen to your Supervisor. He/she will give you tips on whatever you are learning to do so you can be "efficient" and work faster. That's the key, and it's what they are looking for. If you are expected to load and scan 450 packages per hour (One Scan every 8 Seconds), they will show you how it's done. Loaders have a tough job, but get huge muscle because of it. Most lose 20 or more lbs a month when they first start and stick to it. You'll be cut and trim in no time! IMO, It's not a career, but it's a great part time job for some, and not a bad seasonal job. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
