This past Aug-Dec I was consistently pulling 70/72hr weeks. (3 days A2 3 days B2 w/extended shifts). God those paychecks were glorious!

I definitely will. I'm excited for all the newness! Yeah, I hope the days balance out. My biggest concern is not having that 36/40hr paycheck.

This sounds exactly like me, except my transfer has already been approved! the only thing I'm now worried about is they told me it's a "work till the job is done" type of shift, so if we finish in 4hrs, we VLE and if it takes us 13hrs, then we're staying late. at least that's how they make it...

Same here. Seems warehouse was able to catch up, somehow. We've been red all week, without having missed a single day of LOS...up until now.

This sounds oddly like our DC as well :oops: Warehouse was chasing Monday freight still yesterday night >.<

Speaking of garbage freight, anyone one else's building decide to run P&G, Unilever, or J&J through fast flow instead of ART? Who the hell thought that would be a good idea!? 4k carton, 100+ item loads are NOT efficient MD freight. However, we seem to be using them to train first week NH, so I...

Or a day in non con working nothing but bookshelves (all fallen so you can't even clamp them) and rugs:mad:. ART is heaven when you have a baller team that can work with one another and know what to do without being told.

Bought a "relatively" cheap pair of New Balance. So far they're holding up well. I didn't have much faith in them because of the foam soles, but they've surprised me!

It feels like IB sync really did a number on OT for inbound . Last 2 years we were seeing scheduled up in July! So far, not one day this year. Inbounds OT has been non existent. Warehouse and Outbound, pretty much every day...Even with Matthew shutting us down for 2.5 days, and over 40! of our...

We don't even get HOLIDAY PAY for Easter

Not our inbound dept. Temps are ALWAYS throwing in ART. I wish they would put them on deselects on the dock. I hate working those things. I couldn't imagine working a consolidated on the dock. Talk about a 6hr trailer

So, let's talk UDCs! How do YOUR inbound UDC trailers look? How well so they traverse your mezz? How do my fellow inbound TMs feel about working them? Ours you ask? We're averaging about 3 per shift, at least A2 is. They started off GREAT! I loved being able to throw 1200-1600 cartons in 45-90...

I had the same pair probably, and the heel of the sole seperated in about a month :/

Alright so I can't be the only person that keeps going through shoes because they wear out so fast! In the last 10 months I've been through THREE pairs of shoes, two tennis pairs and one pair of boots. I work inbound so we're CONSTANTLY moving... >.< SO! Does any one have a good suggestion for...

Yea that's our reaction when we snap a wire getting onto the bale truck. Like "fuck it! It's not my problem anymore! Lol"
