[QUOTE="ORLY!?!, post: 775862, member: 16334"] I'll admit, a lot of the preloaders here really do stink at their job. The sad part, I know I'm getting twice and some days 3 times as much as other loaders do everyday of the week. I get on sups about this because its bs, because I usally get picked out of the horde to go and help those preloaders. It isnt hard to load by the account numbers. It should be too easy. An average preloader, most of the time, considers themselves just that a preloader, not a loader. A preloader see it as a pre and not a load. The load is up to the driver. Thats the problem, really. No imagenation into what should be an easy job of placing packages on shelves or the floor together neatly or in order. Recently, a higher up came into the building demanding each preloader get 227 pph. This will require each loader get more time on the clock and average 900 a night while pulling out 3 packages per cage. The problem you see now ladies and gentelman, is only going to get worse. The ones that cant cope now will do even a worse job. Sure more time to do it in, but these loaders here ( and I am sure at your place as well) will find a way to even mess that up. The problem is in dispatch, and it is also with the sups too. They lack the knowhow of what it takes to preload. UPS needs to fire more of them, and give us more time to take our time, not the other way around. If you're going to be negative to your preloader, you might as well try something else first. Give your preloader a drink or a few bucks now and again. If that doesnt work, then complain. To tell you the truth, the smart ones do a bad job so they can get an easier job. I see it all the time. Try the postive first, then talk to your sup or steward. [/QUOTE]
