I Really Bucked That Up

On Tuesday I told you about how the milk load came 4 hours late, well that day has had a nasty habit of following me all week. Apparently my panic mode I described then was a bit worse than I thought and I ended up ordering way too much so after being off that next day I walk in yesterday morning to find that there was still some load left that hasn't been worked and with the milk load (thankfully it was only a 1 day milk load) coming at virtually anytime I had to haul some serious ass to work and break down all that. Thankfully my #1 was there, he had to leave early because he was sick but having him there for a few hours I guess is better than having no help at all.

 

My milk load came late only by about an hour which was good that bad because trying to fit a milk load in that situation would be like trying to fit Big Macintosh into a clown car. But my wall load (yogurt, cheese, butter, juice ect) was obscenely late, by time I started breaking down it was 1 which gave me 3 hours to break down and work all that which considering how much meat department and service deli stuff I often have to seperate and that even in the best circumstances it literally takes all day to break down and work that kind of load even though it was a tad small for a 2 day load. And I was plussed out 146 more minute maid punches now giving me 3 pallets of that crap in the cooler if you include the one that was broken down and stacked off against this back wall a few days ago.

 

So basically I am going to walk into an even bigger mess this morning and because my #1 is off today I am on my own and wondering how in the buck I am going to fit a 2 day 1200 piece milk load in there. Anyway folks I am off to the god forsaken hell hole I call work so I will see you all later tonight.

I had a hard time following that due to not knowing what a "Milk Load" is.

A milk load is just that, all milk and the store brand juices while a wall load or "grocery deli" load as it is called in the industry consists of yogurt, cheese, juice, eggs, ect... There are two main reasons why these are separated into two loads even though they are the same department, there is no way you can fit both into the cooler at the same time due to the highly perishable nature you can't leave them out for extended periods so this is simply not an option. And because milk pallets are significantly heavier than other pallets they have to be secured a certain way and any other pallets would have a much higher risk of getting damaged if delivered alongside milk.
