[QUOTE="brownedout, post: 775618, member: 30910"] Really awesome posts by just about everyone. Well it seems that the Preload Assist System has not worked as the higher-ups had hoped. Load quality will always be a matter of personal responsibility. If the loader has an ounce the driver might have a chance. If not, lots of upset drivers (like me) PAL can say ANY ROUTE # 2000 SECTION but there is absolutely nothing to stop any loader from putting that package in the 7000 section (reason doesn't matter at this point); if even on right truck at all. I'm not sure how much training is needed to not block in our FL sections. After repeatedly telling said loaders about this issue. FL1,2,3,4 RDR RDL these are just load positions to loaders with no personal responsibility. They wouldn't bat an eyelash about blocking any of these packages with later work. In slight defense of preload about this last issue I'm fully aware that preload sup s want loaders to not double handle packages. One of those sup s was there in the 80's when I was a loader and he always griped to me about grooming my loads. The worst thing PAS has done is every St. is now just a number. Even our bulkiest stop, just a number. The loader almost has no feel for just how much comes in for this stop and how much space to allot. No clue that on the 3rd Thursday of every month Mrs. Doe at 1 Any St. gets 8 banded Avon packages.
