[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1770265, member: 198"] Actually he has a point. There is no need to write the number when the number used to place the package in the car is already on the PAL. It's reductant and therefore a waste of time. And since most preloaders don't have time to/aren't capable of writing legible numbers, and since there are often duplicate sequence numbers (that should never happen), we often end up having to do six sided checks for a label with an address. If they would just go back to facing either the PAL or the shipping label then we'd save allot of time each day. So, unless they are legible and not duplicated relying on handwritten numbers nowadays is counter productive. Hell I didn't even use them back before we had EDD. It's stupid but its the norm now. Most of our preloaders don't touch the PALs anymore. I don't even want to know how much more time I have been spending in the back of the truck since this crap started. I can tell you that it makes me want to choke the life out of whatever empty suit in Atlanta issued the order. After being in the back of the truck too long flipping packages around looking for a label in the heat I have to step out and take a break and remind myself that they are paying me pretty damn well to be counter productive. LOL! Then I wipe the sweat off my face with my sweat towel and then dive back in. LOL! [/QUOTE]
