I also was a package handler for fedex those arm computers made your arm so hot and sweaty while in a 110F+ trailer

Can you tell me more about your sweaty package handling?

Yes I can “SatansMaggotyCumFart”

Our building had bay doors lined up on one side of the building, it was the off season so we would only use the first quarter of bay doors. At the end of line of garage doors we would use the last 1-3 bays as a sort of “overflow” (I was only there for a few months so I didn’t fully know what they were for.)

We would call it the “abyss” because no one went back there, and there were a few lights out so it was kinda dark. I mostly worked there, when it was a heavy day and the belts were pretty full they would send all packages to the abyss and we would get so back up with packages it worked jam halfway up the shoot to the trailer. So we would have to get a ladder and a stick to fix the jam.

We would sometimes solve the jamming issue by spraying lube on the shoots to help them slide better. It would make the shoots very slick if you tried to walk on them. Also we had fans blowing air into the trailer and if it was a very hot day they would just blew already hot air into a hotter trailer.

Hey now, as a former FedEx package handler we never walked up the chutes. That would be dangerous. /s
