Trust me, you aren’t missing much.

what is it?

 

[dalesr]

what is it?

If you’re asking about “WIN meeting”, it’s a daily communication for all (affected) employees. Covers shop, dock, city and linehaul operations. Once and a while I’ll read something I didn’t know that I needed to know. Just one or two sheets of paper I read some nights when I see it hanging around.

Sorry I was talking about the zero defect program, I also heard something about a gate check

Gate check is a new one for me too

The gate check is a new one to me. The zero defect was a policy of loading freight into trailers. Everything loaded onto a deck had to be strapped to the wall. It lasted about 3 months. Haven’t heard anything about it from FOS in months. I guess it costed to much buying straps and since we no long buy plywood or deck boards l.

Gate check is having a supervisor check your equipment/paperwork as you leave the yard. Have yet to see it happen. Anyone else?

Hahahaha that’s funny. The only time I see the outbound FOS outside is when he is getting in his pickup to leave

We have three FOS’s and an FOM in the building most nights and I haven’t seen anything close to a gate check.
