[QUOTE="aspenleaf, post: 88600, member: 5143"] Well I take in pride in whatever I do even when I am not happy (such as taking away my trucks... :w00t: (I just had to get used to the fact that my old trucks were not coming back.) I wish more did care then maybe they would give us enough time to load in a manner that was safe and let us put the packages on the trucks so that the driver can find them. I have had several co-workers tell me that when it gets busy they stop writting the spa number on the side of the box (a req. we have so that we put the boxes in order on the shelves.). I keep writing, maybe faster, but I don't just stop (unless it is RDR or RDL and they are in the right area... when they leave the area I do write on the box. Today was better, and mangement told me that on Monday I will have a slpit truck and that my sup will use one of my cages as a training cage. So I don't know what that means when we do not have a new hire. I would assume that if there is no one to train I do have a split car in my area? But as the the 4 trucks I will do my best until. I personally like having my drivers like the work I do and it makes them have a better day. In my center (at least on my side of the boxline) we have more women than men. We have 3 women (all 30+) and one college kid (18). All the other males who have tried to work on my side have left after a few days or a few weeks. So I wonder if UPS should try to appeal to the women in my area like the schools do for bus drivers. It is hard work, but you get in shape and the benefits are the best for a part-time job. How are things where you all are? Well thanks for all the tips. :thumbup1: Oh and I found out today that my drivers get a nice list of all the boxes on the truck and how many they should have. Why can't they let us preloaders know that we will have 30 of one stop? On my truck it was spa'd for the 200 spot and took up the whole shelf and some of the 6000 shelf.
