[QUOTE="SolidWoodPanel, post: 3363598, member: 68397"] Umm, have you ever worked preload? If we all start at the same time, how is guy supposed to load packages at the same pace when drivers all have their start time? I'm not trying to destroy seniority pay. Again, I'm talking about preloaders, most of whom are under 25. Why can't the small percentage of guys who are working 25% harder than the rest just get .25 to .50 cent more an hour? We have in our building already a so-called skilled work pay which you .75 cents more when you can load 3 trucks. In my own experience, I had days where I was loading 4 trucks. Sometimes 400 more pieces than the guy next to me. During peak one year, I loaded over 1600 packages one day, and the guy next to me had just over 900 hundred. I just think those loaders that work hard, and perform well consistently should get a raise. The better one of them does their job, the easier it should be for drivers, and therefore the company would perform better and more efficiently. [/QUOTE]
