Got Four Hours To Restack This

Dispatcher took a chance on me and I've failed, been at it since 9am with a 3 hour break, tried everything and before this was taken there was straps and more string on it but was trying to restock again before giving up

Guess now my dm hates me and will push to get me fired, reeeee

Takes me about an hour to stack all the product with a few rope ties on the way , otherwise product about 5 layers under shifts causing it all to fall. Had almost all the product stacked sans about 12 units and strapped it down and did a shake test, it of course shifted and all tumbled

You wont be able to restack that properly and not have it fall. Onion pallets are very unstable.

Unfortunately, due to weight shippers usually put a single pallet in the front of the trailer then put rows of 2.

Now next time what you could do is watch them load and when they put that first single pallet in the front put load locks standing up (top to bottom, not side to side) to secure that front pallet from shifting side to side.

Make sure you have the ratchet type load locks that you can hand tighten because the other ones dont work.

Are yah done yet?

Are you getting paid for all of this?

Probably not. This isn't LTL where you get paid for all the work that you do!

That's that free trucking.

I get paid $23hr to restack freight at a food DC. Not enough.

I talked to a Wise driver once who told me his company gives him the option of either:

1. Him getting paid $8 to unload the trailer himself 2. Getting a Comcheck to pay lumpers to unload

That's not even $8hr to unload the ENTIRE trailer. That's EIGHT BUCKS.

He then added, "You can only guess which option I take each time."

But he's leaving $8 on the table! !!!

LOL! I know, right?! What a dumbass ;)

We talked for a while and he said they originally go paid their hourly rate to unload then it started going down till finally it settled on $8. I asked why $8 and he had no idea.

This information was given while he watched me restack desert cakes. I just think of it as some people pay good money to do CrossFit for something similar :)
