[QUOTE="35years, post: 4264750, member: 60822"] To make it do the following, but never after making it: 1.Come in an hour early. Set up your shelves in perfect pal order. All pals visible (pals up and out) 2. Set up your floor. Bulk on the floor will slow you faster than anything. Get as much as possible up on the shelves. Group bulk by stop in piles with labels and pals visible. Have a plan how you will clear enough bulk out early, on your NDA run if possible. Your goal should be able to walk through the middle asap. Place delivery notes (with bulk add written on it) on the shelves where your bulk fits in. 3. Don't over service your customers. Supervisors will overlook bad DRs if your production is good. Every business del just inside the door. Every resi to front step, unless the customer is there, then just drop on the ground wave and go back to the truck. You have to be almost rude in denying special requests by customers. Emphasize you are trying to qualify as a driver and dont have a second to spare during your qualification period. 4.Sort on your break. Move boxes to the front of shelves if you sorted it all before start time. Bring your lunch and eat while you sort. Make sure you enter break as soon as you stop to when you start up again. If you have a long delay waiting for a customer or say unloading and 2 wheeling the boxes code as break until you scan boxes. 5. Make sure you enter your over 70 lbs pick up pieces in DIAD. Dont lie, it is easily traceable. Getting signatures gives you more time allowance, worth it if customer is all ready to sign. 6. Punch out as quickly as possible in the evening. Typically you are allowed 10 min from return to bldg to punch out. Get out of the bldg asap in the morning. 7. Make sure you have all supplies, DR notes, pens, warm clothes etc. Before work. Being prepared will save you time. 8. Study the monitor/route preview before work. Figure out all time commits and which stops cause problems. Figure out the entire day and the best way to run it before your shift. 9. Call your COD customers before your shift with the check amount they need to fill out before you get there. Once you make it do none of this stuff. You are paid by the hour. You are not a slave so dont work for free. [/QUOTE]
