[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 59067"] The package cars and the packages continue to get bigger and heavier and it is all supposed to be done faster. Such is life. We haven't gotten PAS yet here although the PAS team is in the building and it's coming by spring after they build and destroy some belts, etc. So I have a few questions for any preloaders here that are on PAS already or drivers in PAS centers that know or could find out for me. They keep talking about how it will make it easier for the preloaders. From my years of experience with UPS if the job becomes simpler that means you can do it faster, which means you will be doing more work in less time. Question One: So by "easier" they mean it is easier mentally, but really the job will become harder physically, right? I have been told once PAS is established in a center anyone can load the package cars with no knowledge. Question Two: So in PAS centers does this mean the preloader position is stripped of it's classification of a "skilled" position? Question Three: If the answer to question two is yes, has the company successfully take the additional dollar per hour wage rate for "skilled" position jobs away from existing preloaders? I am interested in answers from actual real UPS world experience, not hypothetical thoughts. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
