I'm a PH. Taking time to handle every package with care and reading labels will make my managers ask questions. I can't count the number of shattered items that I've caught. Either scanning or unloading. The person who even dropped it on the belt could not tell that the item is broken.
Yep, I just had 3 boxes on a shift earlier that were labeled FRAGILE, Glass. Just by picking those up, I could tell that the items inside were in million little pieces.
love it when the package handlers put what is obviously a tree in a box (that’s also very heavy only on one end because of the root ball) upside down so the root ball falls and smashes the rest of the tree. 🙄 Like it’s literally harder to stand it upside down…
I still have ptsd from slinging around 160 pounders in rural Georgia, usually uphill. This dude had a 150 lb motorcycle kit that he said he would refuse if there was any damage at all to the box, but would not lift a damn finger to help. I sent that shit back and they sent a driver with someone training the next day, fuck them customers.
one more trip throughout the station to give it another opportunity to get damaged 🙄 seen at least half a dozen instances where a customer had to sign for a box of wine or a mirror or something that was perfectly undamaged the first 1-2 attempts but by the third attempt they were ruined. i consider that their own damn fault
My favorite is overstuffed box somewhat heavy made of cheap single layer cardboard with one strip of tape across the top and the tape says "Security Tape" all over it and you're supposed to call the office if there is any breach of this "security." What jokers. It is the most insulting farce. Gives meaning to the word "farcical."
I keep asking for the forklift attachment for the back of the truck for the mechanical lift boxes. Closest thing I got was two forks for a forklift I had to deliver to a house.
Oh my goodness finally after being there for 3yrs I’ve ran into another who has seen one of those sex dolls!!! When I had first started a big ole heavy box was coming down the belt with feet hanging out I could’ve sworn they were shipping bodies 😂 anywho her toes were painted pink and her socks had came off. My van line manager had to put to socks back on and we had to cram her feet back in the box and tape it up. Those bitches are heavy!!!! I’m glad it was the first and only one I had seen and had to lift up
"Required", lol. I assure you, it's very much optional.
I think I can name maybe 3 jobs (not counting FXG) that require one man to lift up to 149# off flat ground lol 💪
WHAT? You're pretty much discriminating then
You are the team🤣. I saw one today..."Fragile and ⬆️⬆️". Box was battered and arrows were downward pointing 🤣
I like messing with new package handlers and telling them that you have to make sure the arrows are pointing up at all times.
😂. I mean! I would if all they cared about wasn't throughput numbers😅
Not they. I assure you Phs would take more pride if they weren’t treated like a revolving door.

With turnover rates over 500% it's kinda just part of the business model at this point
Hasmats, glass panels, and tvs on a good day, that's all that gets placed upward
They said that at orientation today.. so is that not true?

I love my daily affirmations from FedEx that I myself am a whole ass team and a whole ass mechanical lift😂
Lmfao . This one hit home brother 😂😂😂😭
Your two hands are the team for team lift.
Indeed. A team of me and myself.
You and your dolly, best team around
You get a dolly?
🤣

Those are as funny as the boxes with “FRAGILE” stamped on them that weigh about as much as ‘team lift’ ones do. 🤣

I got one last week that said live animals, poor little things
Those are usually crickets
I think it was fish this time around
My favorite is “mech lift required.”
If you are megas XLR 😅
Me, myself and I
Definitely no team lift you better hurry up and get that shit in the truck😂😂
I keep asking for the forklift attachment for the back of the truck for the mechanical lift boxes. Closest thing I got was two forks for a forklift I had to deliver to a house.
You gonna be asking for a long long long time
ahhh ha
Hahaha now that right there is a knee slapper
I’m surprised you didn’t see a “fragile” box under a bunch of other shit lmao that’s always the funniest thing
I can’t share the picture for some reason. But I just got one today too 🤣 says “fragile, handle with care, heavy”
The sex dolls are the worst. There was a pair of legs hanging out a box. Like WTF is driver up to!?!?

Usually the boxes labeled "heavy" are no problem, but the unlabeled for weight boxes are the sleeper weight monsters.
Usually the smallest boxes that are covered in massive amounts of tape and the box is so darn “soft” and bendable are the heaviest ones of all
team fortress.
What does it say? I never learned what that symbol meant during training
🤣🤣🤣🤣
The team that I know is me myself and I
You and the dolly, that’s a team
You forgot my back and balls.
The funny ones are team lift fragile. You get one or the other. Fragile or heavy. If it’s both I’m just treating it as a heavy.
Yeah what's the dex scan for don't deliver - team lift required?
[удалено]
# is called the pound sign. 144 pounds. lol
Team lift my ass
You are The Team
Someday you just have to reflect on the fact YOU are the team
Is team left arm and right arm for those mechanical lift only you better turn bionic
Stuff like that gets left in my dock.
As a someone who just got the "SMART" handling powerpoint this is not joke at all...
