so glad they started putting them on pallets. What about Rubbermaid, Closet Maid and Newel loads?

Sounds to me like you're answering your own question. They are going to let you do more, but why should you? Give them 4 bills per hour (or less).

Since when do we get paid for BPH.....how about giving them an honest days work for an honest day wage?

I love it when people try to misrepresent things you have said. If you will actually read everything that was written, mysticbra, had stated his terminal’s daily bill count was 350-400, and they were trying to work this freight with 8 people. I USED 4 bills per hr as a base formula to show how many people they SHOULD actually be using to work that amount of freight. You are right; we don’t get paid for performance. However, every terminal has “performance goals” they try to attain. I don’t know what the “goal” for this terminal is, but using 4 BPH AS A BASE, they should have had another 5 people working! The company always likes to use numbers against us. We ALWAYS need to use their own numbers against them!

All I can say is Fleer Bubble Gum, I had a old 45' in route to 135 blow a wheel bearing and tear up the axle. TM told me I don't care how or what the cost is you have to fix it we ain't stripping it here, Rockwell said special order 6-8 weeks $2100...................trlr was around in the city fleet for another 8 years nobody ever noticed that standard width $610 axle I put in was 3/8' wider then the back one :poster_oops:

Paul was a good guy.In fact their were a lot of good people out of there,I use to work out of 105 and run down there sometimes so we might have crossed paths a time or two,

 

[LEHIGH vALLEY]

Paul was one of those Guys who had his own dedicated lane in the shop because he would (Not Could!) find something wrong with his unit every night!!!!!
I can still remember his advice to me," Hey! Article 20 baby! As long as your moving! Nothing in there about how fast you have to go!!"

 

[AkitaDog]

I use to kid him when he was later then normal.I would say your running a little late tonight Pauly....and he would say in that deep voice,nope i'm right on time!He was no doubt a stand up guy!
