You can't fix stupid.

It’s happening in a lot of places. Here you go @upsjack :
1. Follow some sort of percent of work somewhere
2. Take the day off if it makes management’s numbers better
3. Be a utility/cover driver and grab a route based on seniority like everyone else



4. Stop being a bitch.

All joking aside, any reaction, statements, etc from the union in response to rural delivery service cuts? As I said before, it is somewhat easy now using with social media to generate negative press against the company for doing this.

It’s ups company they can run it how they see fit

Yep, and the union can start an infomation campaign informing customers about their deliveries being held back.

Yup. Racism. Mostly white people live in remote areas and ups dosnt care about them.

Don’t think ups really cares as long as we’re cutting costs

Shot it down the first time…can do it again if people get fired up enough

They will care when some news outfit does a hit piece on them. Gammy crying on camera about her meds not getting delivered. The media eats that stuff up!

Does our union even have a public relations/media department? This isn't 1990 anymore.

Law firms are really good at this. They advertise in key markets for people potentially hurt by some issue.

I don't even know what to say on that....

Seriously ?

Jobs. No one cares until you are the one affected.

Any route that isn’t bricked out with 2 days of volume would save them money by doing this. I agree with Wally why let them get the nose under the tent?

 

[Wally]

Other unions do marketing all the time.

 

[DumbTruckDriver]

Seriously ?

Yes. I get a ton of next day air that gets deferred. Are we really ok with these people paying for a service that the company refuses to fulfill?

Not our decision to make unfortunately.

When drivers use the what about the customers line it always makes me think about Teachers and the "think of the children!"

You don't care about the customer. You care that your route is out and you have to do something else that day.

542 is right! Job elimination is good for the company!
