Well, it gets much worse!
Now many companies use "Global Load Control" or Centralised Loadsheet Factories. On actual flights, the ramp agents are given a loading instruction to follow and they send any deviations and amount of bags in any given compartment back to the load controller. What is quite frustrating is when the loadplanning (often completed abroad) contains errors.
Those encountered were:incorrect load priorities or so trim critical at the planning stage that no consideration is taken of passenger seating, or even any comprehension about compartment sizes. (Trying to fit 20 bags into a non-existant net section!)
