The joy of working on a loading dock. Back in the days when I worked for Landgrebe in Valpo the south end of the building was wide open for loading flat bed trucks off the dock.Staying warm in Sauk Village.

I did the same for UPS when in tech school in Illinois. Absolutely sucked.When in tech school in Connecticut I did offloading of belly trailers for FedEx. Many single digit nights goon in and out of trailers, sweating my ass off unloading as fast as I possibly could.
Lol. Thankfully I've got enough to keep Kevin fed for the next year but I'll probably have to make another order for Gamora around late March. We should be past the icy roads by then as long as my patented Jedi Sleepin' Brick does its job.TV's rats are probably on there.
I did hand unloading with Eby Brown and Schneider for about 2 years combined in addition to driving the truck. Sucks is an understatement. The only plus side is I was less fat.Literally everyone I know that loaded a truck, "It sucked."
Yea fedex was hand unloading. We'd be doing like 15 mins/trailerI did hand unloading with Eby Brown and Schneider for about 2 years combined in addition to driving the truck. Sucks is an understatement. The only plus side is I was less fat.
I can gladly say I have been migraine free for three months. Ajovy has eliminated them for me.Migraine, anyone? We all seem to get them at the same time, like girlfriends who get their periods together.
Someone's ammo is gonna be late.Really surprised I didn't read it here first... Did I miss it?
Relative to the times, those part time jobs at UPS used to pay really well. Around 1980, my older brother was struggling in tech school and took a 4am-8am package handling shift at the UPS terminal next to campus. He eventually quit school but stayed with the part time UPS job. Like you guys, he said the work could suck. For him, it ultimately led to a 35 year career as a delivery driver and over the road driver.I did the same for UPS when in tech school in Illinois. Absolutely sucked.
Meh...
I used to UNLOAD trucks using gravity feed roller conveyor.Literally everyone I know that loaded a truck, "It sucked."
Since everyone is pitching in a truck unloading story. I'll throw in mine. After installing a fire alarm or burg alarm? in Shelton fireworks when they first came to Burns Harbor, my boss pimped us out for a day or two of unloading semi trailers full of fireworks. Way way short time, And I was 18, so I guess that's why it didn't stick out in my "worst" category...I used to UNLOAD trucks using gravity feed roller conveyor.
There were 2 days that were most hated. The day that a truckload of paper bags arrived. And the day that a truckload of Kingsford charcoal arrived. Every bale and every bag of charcoal came off that truck by hand, and had to be restocked onto pallets.
Those were miserable days
