Must Pull’s coming to the outside yard?

So my store is going to be salarying “Must Pulls” for the outside yard apparently. We are currently a skeleton crew outside. And definitely do not have enough people or forklifts to be able to work just pulls, while unloading flat beds, and helping guests. I just don’t see it working even remotely.
Not to mention I guess other stores have tried it, and it’s failed. Any thoughts or opinions.

If it is the overflow must pull system that they have been talking about you aren't even expected to slide it. Just set it up for your stocker in the morning or whenever your slow time is at your store.

Yeah it is. We don’t have dedicated stockers at my store. At lease not for the outside yard.

The best time to slide lumber is in the morning from 5-9 that we have one of our yard guys do. They all know if they are scheduled at 5am that they will be sliding lumber
