And we all know they would never lie to us!:LMAO:
All I know is it wasn't that long ago that I used to work a lot harder, made many more stops through out the day, and moved a lot more freight on the dock. Used to be about moving freight. Now it seems that there is only so much time in the day and a lot of time is spent NOT actually moving the freight but looking at it, measuring it, touching it, loving it! :) Oh and we also now have twice as many people at our sc than ever before and looking to hire more all the time! Easy money!!!! The question is for how long?

A part timer with no benefits don't give a crap if this freight is easy to unload! If anything, they want it to look like junk on the other end out of spite. And that goes for some dsrs too. Here's my take : space=waste=damage=claims!I just wish that some of the other DSR would think before they load I have had some trailer that I have unloaded on inbound this yr that looked like someone stood at the back of the trailer and pushed it in why can't we just do a good job and load it like you are going to unload it.

I don't think I saw that sign up in the break room anywheres . Maybe in the toilet.
But lean is giving us the profits..... that's what they said. Reduced accidents and exceptions are the difference between making and losing money.
The worst thing about all of this is I used to build daylane pures. Now the freight is all mixed up. West and north freight mixed up in the trailer that should of been direct lanes. Don't these dumb a$$'s realize all of the extra labor they are creating? Oh yea, this is Con-Way! A new Core Value. "We step over a dollar to pick up a dime"
