I enjoy the workout but if they'd let me do high volume twice a week...it'd be perfect.
3 done 3 to go
In control of own destiny
Due to work on Friday. Our center genious cut areas. So it was like we didn't touch s box.

In our building, it's going to be LIB's not send-againsOur start time's 12:15, I was asked to come in earlier (I guess I worded my question wrong.) Most likely in anticipation of aload of send-agains.
I'm cool with an extra 45min overtime.
Tuesday should be interesting.

Ita frustrating to see management screw up the first day of peak. All jokes aside not sure we stand a chance 3 weeks from now. We started at midnight and were just killed all day starting an hr later tomorrow which should screw us up even worse. Preload has always been frustrating but this year may take the cake.

Everything we loaded Fri came back and we had double the work. No bulk was taken off it was a diaster they paid everybody double time on Fri for going thru the motions. Management needs to step up if we're going to have the slightest chance of overcoming the volume. It seems like they get worse every year

This is my 11th peak and the preload management team is the worse I have every seen it. We did the same first 3 hrs were all send agains before we even touched the 70 plus thousand we had of new volume. The lack of sense from management is going to catch up to them sooner than later. They wont be able to outrun there poor leadership skills for very long with the amount of volume we have.

By far the most screwed up day I've ever seen the preload have in my center. God help us the rest of peak.

10hours to load that? I think I could have chucked it all in an hour or less.
11:30PM start time... 10 hours to load...

It was worse than I thought it would be and I thought it would be bad. Almost 180 stops when I usually have about 105--425 pieces (in an 800) when I usually have 250. The helper card listed the scheduled helper time as 1.3 hours...that gave me a needed laugh this morning...I kept him for 9 hours and it took me 12 hours.

We had guys with 8:30 start times that didn't leave the building today until nearly 10am. Good luck with those 15 air stops!

We started at 0850. Everything was wrapped and while it was heavy for a Monday there were very few helpers on road. 150 stops with 400+ pkgs. Punched out and gone by 1815.

That's a pretty average day on any of the downtown routes I cover.

I'll bet you don't drive 50 miles during your day.
