So today was my first day at GFS. It wasn't that bad granted I was with a person who knew what he was doing, but we did just fine. 12 stops I don't know what our weight or stop count was, but we were pretty well cubed.
However, the stops were pretty fast and straight forward. We went to pretty much all schools and the Sheriffs Office and Jail down town. To deliver a skid of dishwasher detergent, eggs and butter.
We also did one hospital and that wasn't awful either with one guy it would have been more of a pain, but it was no big deal with two guys. We had to load everything on U-Boats and then we just took it all to the kitchen.
The schools and hospitals got a ton of dry goods which are in big boxes, but not all that heavy. Just big and bulky. We did a ton of potato chips and Sun Cups. The school kids love those Sun Cups:
GFS is the king of Suncup distribution oh and frozen pizza's kids at schools love frozen pizzas.
Also chips did I mention chips our dry compartment of the truck was a ton of chips.
Suncup, chips, cafeteria trays, napkins, straws, frozen pizza, french toast sticks, more frozen pizza and ice cream seem to be the #1 thing school cafeterias buy.
We did a ton of schools GFS does like every school district in Cleveland. They must have the pricing and the product offering that makes them really attractive to school districts and institutional places like that.
Like I said we also did a hospital and the hospital was a dock stop and they got all kinds of dry goods, chips tea paper and plastic products we had 2 U-Boats for the hospital freezer 2 U-Boats for the hospital cooler and like 4-5 U-Boats stacked full of dry goods going to the hospital you know, plates, napkins, tea stuff like that.
The dry goods some are not heavy and in general this food is heavy in some cases, but in other cases it isn't it all kind of depends, but today wasn't a bad day.
Where I think the killer is though and where it gets heavy is not so much the schools (not that they can't be heavy) but the regular restaurants and pizza places. I worked at a pizza place for 4 years and yes our stuff was a tad on the heavy side.
With GFS it's more of a oh darn somehow we have to get 100 cases through the side door freezer compartment. That could certainly be a challenge.
