[QUOTE="anonloader, post: 57095"] In my hub, PT and FT sups consistently do hourly work in the morning. On one hand, I know that they're taking away hourly jobs. But our building churns through half a dozen new hires every week. Retention is so poor that we're constantly short handed. At the same time, there are quite a few loaders who run out the door as soon as they've wrapped their trucks. This leaves no one to do things like run irregs & missorts, help wrap other loaders, etc. I see loaders dump a cart of NDAs (bad spa, missort) at the clerk station and walk out the door at 8:15 am. When every loader left on the clock is still wrapping his own trucks, there's no one besides management who will take care of the premium pieces. It seems that union solidarity goes out the window when it comes to helping out fellow workers... solidarity apparently only counts when we're trying to collectively screw the company. Other things I see PTers do that really pisses me off: *irreg runners dump packages at the head of the line rather than running them down to the proper truck *package runners charge the boxline at 8:15 am after it's been down for 1.5 revs... loaders think they've cleared all the bins and end up missing everything the runner dumped...usually NDAs *package runners dump their entire cart for the full belt (~40 trucks) into a single bin at 8:15 am. Of course, mangement does their fair share to piss me off: *making an add/cut off of trucks at 7:45 am *making an add/cut onto a truck at 7:45 am and never telling the loader to expect it [/QUOTE]
