[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 4193431, member: 198"] If managers are against custom loading then that tells me the dispatcher(s) have whined enough about having to do the extra keystrokes and mouse movements at their computers to get them to listen. Ours told me that if a bulk stop assigned to RDR only has a few pieces then the system removes it and puts it back into in a section so he has to manually move them there. Some stops need to stay put no matter how many pieces. Custom loading is a must. It’s just better for everyone. Including the customer. I acknowledge the lack of training. I’ve actually had words with the preload “supervisors” over the matter. In fact, what little they are “teaching” our new loaders is setting them (and drivers) up for failure. My route is a cake resi route with high stop counts but sometimes includes just about everything you don’t want on a truck. LOL. I’ve given/shown tips to most of the preloaders I’ve had (one guy just seemed to be a natural) and the preload sups as nicely as possible and they either don’t get it or just don’t care. If they would cooperate it would help the preloader just as much as me. Our load chart is put out very early or before preload starts but most of them seem to ignore it. [/QUOTE]
