I enjoyed it for some reason. I think I just preferred scanning and labeling over being in the truck unloading. And it felt like a Pip Boy. But that's another thing, if you were loading vs. unloading that might be different. I wouldn't want to lift anything with that on
Loading was my usual, and our hub sucked. Fuck tons of goddamn fruit in wax, and then would come the big packages about right as I was loading on my own, so now I had that thing strapped to me, trying to work around the belt with a damned TV to scan.
Smalls was my dream. Lightweight, wrapping took no time, steady pace but never overwhelming. Night just flew by, chatting about bullshit. Jumped at the chance any time they needed a body.
lol Smalls is where they send the people they want to get rid of in my building. Half of them, probably more, are on permanent medical modified duty so FedEx can't use them for anything else.
Loading with these things was shit. I primarily loaded as a package handler and it was a pain to have this attached to your arm, scanning every package, and then lifting those packages over your head to fill in the gaps on top.
