[QUOTE="soberups, post: 333043, member: 14668"] If I see a minor weight discrepancy I will bring it to the shippers attention and give them an opportunity to correct it. 99% of the time it is a clerical error, and it may not even be cost-effective for me to wait 4 minutes for them to re-weigh and re-label it. The difference in revenue between 4.2 and 6.1 pounds is not enough to justify delaying a driver making $45 an hour on OT. If there is a HUGE weight discrepancy...or if the problem is ongoing and appears to be an attempt to defraud us...I will then inform the customer that I wont be able to pick up ANY of their packages until the problem has been corrected. A 70lb. package that says 7 lbs isnt going into my truck. [/QUOTE]
