Help me me to learn to multitask at extended periods of time

Alot of pressure and always on your toes, which is great. Always something new to learn and to progress on. I feel they had a large staff turn over as to the long working hours, but that's the game.

Pros: Got to learn alot about courier and hone my operational management skills
Cons: Extremely long working hours at 14 hours a day every day

I love what i do but i work hard and it is not appreciated

They say you do not quit your job, you quit your boss. I treat all my co workers and boss with respect but all they do it to tell you how useless you are and how little they care if you go or stay. I have been with this company for 6 going on 7 years. I love what i do and i get along with my customers like a house on fire. Aug i brought in 41000 new business alone. I truly love what i so but i am always a stress ball as you have no backup in our company.

Pros: You get to meet people from all walks of life
Cons: Super long working hours and entering dangerous areas

Informative and yes a learning curve.

i work for a logistics company and when i first came here i knew nothing about logistics or courier, but after a year of being in this sort of environment i have really learned a lot. my computer literacy has really picked up compared to the basic computer skills i had when i first started working here. the people i work around with were very welcoming and helpful which also made things a lot easier for me, well they say i'm easy to get along with and they enjoy being around me. so yeah i am a people person and i can also focus on my work and being productive at the same time so i'm not easily distracted.

Pros: i want to work in a company that has room for growth.
Cons: working on weekends

Not a great environment to work in

Staff are treated poorly. We get demerited for any mistake we make. Feels like we are working back in primary school. Micromanagement at its worst and nobody enjoys going to work. It's actually very sad.

Pros: Gained knowledge in the field
Cons: Poor management

Good working environment

The position that i am in currently is not challenging for me implement my skills. My relationship with my team and other department is great because I interact with many people. I have learnt a lot from the courier company. I do enjoy the Data capturing. I really do not have that 10 percent with my family , homework with my child. Other people within the family is doing it for me. There is no growth.

Pros: no growth
Cons: 12 hours per day

Team Work

The day starts off with the whole team on the warehouse floor double checking that freight is in the correct loading bays, separating and loading parcels into the designated route bakkies. Communication between operations assistants, drivers, porters as well as myself is vital to ensure a smooth running of the whole process, time management so freight and drivers can be dispatched without delays. I enjoy being a part of a well oiled machine and always managing to keep the team in line by enforcing protocols and conflit resolution when conflicts arise. every team member is valued and respected and we all learn from each other from time to time.

Pros: Mental growth
Cons: Long working hours
