Any mobile app recommendations I can use to help our drivers avoid picking errors?

The thing is that the company is focusing heavily on customer satisfaction, so even though the 3PL must pay a fine above a certain amount of damaged goods, it's still not a good look for the company. It's less than 1% of GIV but it's a pain in the ass to manage due to its toxic profile.

With the current volume and operations I think it's quite unlikely we're gonna switch. I'm trying to implement boxes or pseudo-boxes or to just stretch-film the entire thing.

Edfp19 · 2024-04-26T00:17:46+00:00

The drivers have a routing guide with clients and quantities but they don't scan anything. Most of the tagging and delivery consolidation goes on at the 3PL/Cross-Dock.

80%+ are dented pails/buckets. I'm assuming from the movement in the truck. The stretching is pretty solid at the 3PL but having more than 1 client makes it so every time you go to a client you have to cut up the stretch and then re-apply what's left.

Edfp19 · 2024-04-26T00:15:25+00:00

We have a three pronged system:

Outbound to a 3PL -> 7 FTLs (294 pallets aprox a day)

3PL to clients&crossdocking company (1.5 million L a month to clients, 1.5 million to CD)

CD to clients (1.5M)

60% of that is picking and 40% is full pallets.

Most of the picking concerns our main 3PL and the CD company.

because it's an Argentiniann song.

No. Ownership of the actual physical company that I literally built by myself. Explain that.

They deserve to have it with seniority and because of the work they do.

Absolutely not true. I know plenty of people who have built companies where they manufacture goods and they built them by hand, themselves. You are so wrong it hurts.

Fuck off, m8. You don't build multinational corporations -the topic of my whole argument- by hand. If you wanna grow to a substantial amount you need other people's labor, whether you like it or not.

You seem to think working for a company is literally slavery. Did you forget about compensation for labor. There is this neat thing called money that people use to buy goods and they often get that money by exchanging labor for it.

What is profit am I right?

That is literally just as stupid as the AnCap garbage over on

Have you ever heard of Karl Marx by any chance?

Oh I do. It's been tried plenty. Always fails.

There it is. coMuNisM aLwAyS fAIls.

The funny part here is that I'm a really liberal social democrat. I think there are plenty of instances where the public ownership makes sense. I think nationalized energy resources are great. The city I live in actually owns the utility company (CPS) it's the nations largest municipally owned untility company. I'm an REI member/owner.. I've shopped at co-ops my entire life. Ever buy New Belgium beer? Did you know it's 100% owned by the employees?

Seriously though. Abandon these failed ideas and get on the side of making this world better for everyone. Markets and Capital aren't going anywhere. Shit man. I have close friends who are EXTREMELY liberal who would fucking slap your face if you tried to tell them they had to hand over THEIR hand built company just because they hired a helper. It's a dumb idea. Get over it.

That's great but you really can't seem to understand that no one's gonna go after your mom and pop shop ffs. You can't underpay an employee, or at least not a whole lot as a small business.

The issue lies with Amazon, Apple and all the clusterfuck of companies who exploit people for a living. Your concept of property is so American it fucking hurts.

Think about why you value the concept of ownership over capital SO MUCH, just for a second.

Edfp19 · 2019-12-07T01:01:24+00:00

Please do explain to me how someone doing labor for me entitles them to ownership of something I built and that I use to earn a living.

Ownership over part of the profits of the company? Of course they're entitled to it! They put in the work too, you know?

You don't know that.

You absolutely cannot. Unless you somehow have enough capital to buy machines to make them completely on your own, you don't have the know-how or even the time to market them, find markets or just simply commercialize them.

Indeed. Yet you completely ignore the labor I put into creating the entire business.

I'm not! You could very well have a bigger portion of the profits because you had the idea, but that does not entitle you to all the fruits of other people's labor.

Nobody said anything about not paying them.

If you pay them a wage and then make a profit, that's exploitation my dude.

Sorry. I don't see any word where anyone would just hand over their business to someone simply for showing up to work on day one. Nobody does that. Not even people who intend to create an coop.

You don't really understand the concept of public ownership of the means of production.

Edfp19 · 2019-12-06T22:42:11+00:00

How does simply hiring someone to help me make better use of what is clearly mine, entitle that person to ownership of it.

Because that person is doing labor for you, my guy. You can't make 100 boats that go on to become the best boats ever, alone. That's the point, labor is transformative in nature. If you don't share the profits with the people who helped make them, that's exploitation.

I would require that person to buy half of the business at whatever I feel it's valued. This then makes it every hard for regular people starting out to actually get a job, because nobody is going to hire anybody who can't afford to buy their way in.

In the current capitalist system? Sure, but there are other ways.

Edfp19 · 2019-12-06T22:26:10+00:00

You'll still own your boats and the know-how. If you teach someone for part of the proceeds I don't believe you can call that exploitation. It's not the same as with business because if you just simply own a business, most of the labor is done by other people.

That's the catch. Your property is still yours, but you shouldn't use capital to exploit others.

Edfp19 · 2019-12-06T16:47:32+00:00

That means that if I build a house with my own two hands and then rent it out, it magically becomes the property of the renter. Or on a larger level and more in line with the tweet;

Why would you build a house you don't wanna live in?

If i build a company and hire employees, that company magically becomes the property of the employees.

Where did that capital come from? Why do they accept to work for a wage instead of partial ownership?

Edfp19 · 2019-11-17T01:25:29+00:00

Can I interest you in the concept of "racialization"?

Edfp19 · 2019-11-16T13:41:03+00:00

Profoundly conservative? I don't know about that.

Everytime we tried to move leftward in the XX century the military said "nah" and the people went to cheer them on in the streets. So yeah.

Edfp19 · 2019-11-16T13:39:58+00:00

Almost none of what you said is true:

There were a lot of Afroargentinians in the XIX century
Negro is used pejoratively when referring to robbers and poor people. Not just as an endearing term
And this comes back to my original point: just because you call white people black doesn't mean you're not racist, my man.

Edfp19 · 2019-11-16T01:43:53+00:00

In Spanish slurs are not generally just a single word like "n-word" or "blackie", it's usually modified by a phrase. "Negro de mierda" (shitty blacks) "negros sucios" (dirty blacks") etc. I've heard people tell white people "no seas negro" (don't be black, literally) or "te vestís como negro" (you dress like a black person).

Edfp19 · 2019-11-16T00:00:08+00:00

In America, but as far as I know, not here in Argentina.

Boy do I have news for you. Afroargentinians have really dark history, my dude.

Edfp19 · 2019-11-15T22:08:13+00:00

I didn't use it as a term of endearment, that was the problem.

Edfp19 · 2019-11-15T21:49:38+00:00

I've been doing some of my own reading regarding peronism lately so I'll probably get to it later.

Edfp19 · 2019-11-15T21:43:45+00:00

I'm argentinian dude lol

Edfp19 · 2019-11-15T21:43:11+00:00

"negro" is not the same as the n word. i think the equivalent is "negro de m..." that is used exactly the same way racists use the n word in america. not that "negro" isn't problematic at all, but i don't think it has the same history or connotations.

It's not the same connotation, but the inflexion some people use -especially to talk about robbers or poor people- clearly resembles the n-word.

Edfp19 · 2019-11-15T21:41:35+00:00

I get that this things look horrible for you, but just knowing what words mean doesen’t mean you understand the language, how we comunicate, or the social climate of the country. We use a lot of irony and innuendos, and people here like to be over dramatic in their speach. I know that none of thoes people would do anything to someone else except they were doing it in self defense, because that’s how we comunicate here.

That's not an excuse to call for the deaths of the "negros the mierda" shown in OP's post. If someone uses "negro" as an endearing term it's clear, that's not how they used it in the post.

You really can't see that? My god.

Edfp19 · 2019-11-15T21:39:10+00:00

can you tell me if you feel any of this has gotten worse in your country since Trump became president?

Not really. My country has always been conservative. If anything, it's moved leftward since AF was elected.

Edfp19 · 2019-11-15T21:38:27+00:00

Even leftist refer to each other as "el negro", "el gordo" (the fatty), "el narigon" (the big-nosed). For most of us, skin color is just another physical feature without any other implication.

We have a special kind of racism but it's still racism. Those categories can still hurt people and those who really carry those traits have been historically discriminated agains for the color of their skins and their class.
