[QUOTE="aspenleaf, post: 88274, member: 5143"] We have that new system (PAL I think it is called) that makes it "easy" but the bulk items all say 1 of 1 or they will say 1 of 4 but there will be 10 sets of those. . .and then the truck is a mess and you have to sidestep to place the next day airs up front... :w00t: It just makes me crazy. I didn't start in time to have to memorize everything. So now I have 4 four very packed trucks. And how can something that is 100 pounds be fragile??? I know it can break but those are no fun and they are spa'd for a top shelf? The lumber people have software that will tell them how many ways they can saw a log and not have any left over wood and we can't spa things to take into accound the size. My drivers have all been wonderful and I listen to them (since they are my customer and I'd rather have 4 happy drivers than one happy sup) but right now the volume (and my start time - which I have no control over) are getting in the way. Up until last Thursday I loved loading my trucks and planned to stay through peak to load those trucks. (I am in nursing school so I am not planning on staying at UPS for a long time) These new trucks I have. . .well let me just say I will not be here for peak loading those by myself. I have been told that they will hire someone to take over one of my cages... but I was fine before the move so I think I just have to step it up and get used to the extra volume coming my way. Thanks for the info and that part about a path to the front is helpful since they park the trucks so close that I once blocked my driver from the front and had to move stuff so he could leave. :blushing: Well happy Monday!
