Carol on CNBC

[oldupsman]

Just watched A 20 minute live interview with Carol on CNBC.
Some highlights.

Our service is better than ever. That's why we're ahead of Fed Ex.
We have a great relationship with Amazon that benefits both parties.
We've cut way back on our overtime hours.
We just successfully extended our contracts with both the pilots and mechanics.
Ups drivers make an average of $90,000 a year with another $50,000 in benefits.
You pay nothing for health care as a UPS employee.
You can apply for a job as a driver helper, interview, and START WORKING,
the SAME DAY.

She really came off as well informed. Never hesitated at any question.
She gave a great impression of someone who's on top of everything.

She put our numbers out on the air so public can know how much we make

wonder why she didn’t say how much she makes in a year?

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

wonder why she didn’t say how much she makes in a year?

Or how much to part-timers make?

Look how happy this driver is at work

Nearly all those spots are recorded and scripted. There's no way a company is going to allow it's hierarchy to be handled by a news outlet. My wife's cousin works for JP Morgan and works in company communications.

The company showed that it was managing a difficult environment by affirming the full-year outlook.

Just return to us the turkeys, and there will be an end to the horror.

I’d love to see the full interview. I can only find a single 4 minute clip. YouTube, CNBC homepage. She talks so strange. Like she’s reading off a teleprompter, and she loves using her hands when she talks.

Or how much to part-timers make?

Or how we have to poop in the back of our truck…

Can’t believe receiving turkeys again wasn’t on any of the proposals

Who cares about part-timers?

Who cares about part-timers?

It used to be an above average part-time paying job

...but he makes $90,000 a year ... ?

Have you recently seen our Commander and Chief...nuff said!

 

[DELACROIX]

...but he makes $90,000 a year ... ?

Addendum: probably a newer 22.4 driver .. make that $50,000 a year...

At least the Company is paying $50,000 a year into his pension and health and welfare plans...Sure looks like he will need it now and in the future...

Or are they?

when you lie about things you do that.

Amazon is a competitor that UPS is treating as a customer....ask Borders books how their relationship with Amazon went when Amazon started delivering the same services instead of having customers go to Borders to pick up Amazon orders. Amazon is buying planes to directly compete. They've already bought the trucks. How many Amazon trucks did you see 10 years ago...how many are on the road today?

Cut way back on our OT because these results included the summer vacation season and non-busiest season. Wait until they start cutting headcount for the basis of the 2023 CBA and lay off a lot of these guys--so when they decide to go back to 100% staffing they can claim to fulfill hiring targets in the CBA. You got hired as a driver recently---let me hand you your pink slip dated Jan 15th right now. We'll need you back two days after Memorial Day but we'll lay you off in June so you won't count as a job that needs to stay through the next contract. Good luck in between.

You do pay for health care as a UPS employee now---it's $100 for singles and $200 for families---it used to be nothing until the year before Hoffa's best contract ever. And that is even before how many brand name drugs were taken off the formulary list (when the insurance forces you to switch medications by making the one prescribed by your doctor prohibitively expensive). Plus that doesn't even get into 80% co-pays with increased rates for services and co-insurance visits.

Driver helpers start working the same day? They string them along until Thanksgiving week. The problem is they are in a tight job market still and won't meet their hiring needs because of poor pay comparatively to the effort required. So, they wanted to make a pitch without having to spend on a commercial. Fine, I get it--but still a lie.

Also she had to get in the shot about drivers earn to try to get ahead of the CBA negotiations and blame drivers greed for any work stoppage.

Did they ask her about the pregnant employee at worldport in Kentucky who killed herself on the property after being fired? Or the other worker at worldport who fell to her death last week?
