[QUOTE="norcal, post: 890707, member: 36726"] First off, you'll be lucky to get 4 hours if you're just starting out. It's odd that they wouldn't give you a tour, but if you're going to be hired anytime soon (before peak) they're not going to just throw you out there, you'll get training and have help from a sup for a while. They're usually much more in need of loaders than unloaders, so it's probably a little more likely that you'll be loading. Don't worry, it's really not that hard after you get used to it. The hardest part of the job is giving enough of a damn to get in the right mental state day in and day out to do the job. Things like telling yourself to work hard, and making a nice load for your drivers (if you do in fact start out loading), and generally hearing your share of bs from management. I dunno, but to me it seems like unloading is a place where your brain is sure to rot. A lot of people like it though, so who knows. As far as transferring, I have no idea. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
