How NOT to unload a trailer!

'olhand said: ↑

I love all the union/non union arguments--especially w/all the grocery whse's--It has less than NOTHING to do with unionization--and since the majority of drivers just check in(typically with the lumpers)and just go sit in their trux--you really have NO idea of the goings on inside...
The truth is--it is the lack of receivers in these whse today--many of them will have ONE receiver for an entire section--so while the lumpers might have you done in less than an hour--with all the cutbacks--there is one poor ####### working his ### off--responsible for tagging and checking 25+doors at a time....
And now in most places the receivers are not only responsible for tagging--but for doing all the RF work which typically used to fall to the forklift drivers who put freight away--the process has become very time consuming and they can do only one load at a time...All in terms of them saving money--while you sit---course a little proactivity can cut this time by 75% or more--but that DOES require you to get out of the truck and get involved LOL
