Part Timers should make more than full timers.
We should start at $25 an hour and have a four year progression topping out at a dollar an hour more than package. (Including bennies)
Inside work is a lot harder than package and definitely ten times harder than feeder and a million times harder than clerk and a trillion times harder than car- wash.
I have verified this opinion by asking everybody I work with in those positions if for similar full time pay $36 an hour would they rather unload/load trucks for 10 hours.
I have not met one person that disagrees with me that unloading/loading trucks is the hardest/worst job. And nobody wants to do these type of inside jobs ever again lol
I give you this, at least you are thinking big. I have worked in every area that you listed and will let you on a little secret; the work environment will never change no matter what job you are doing at UPS.
Disagree about the hardest job, just try the preload. Anybody who has been working that shift for over 5 years are basically sleep deprived zombies.
You are right about nobody wanting to start employment with the current pay structure, why would anybody want to do a physically demanding part time job with a full time commitment. HR is basically dragging the bottom of the barrel for any new hire to cover the turnover. Guess the old adage of "you get what you paid for" applies.
People needn't worry about replacement workers if a strike does occur. Currently they are besides themselves just to cover the manning in all operations, the economy is just too good for anybody to take a risk of crossing a picket line and all that it would apply. The ones who might could cause major liability to the companies' assets and property.
Anybody who participated in the "97" one will tell you that it will be a total shut-down. There will be no movement of packages domestically and internationally. The pilots were walking our picket line last time, this time it would be every major union with us with a bone to pick.
tier work, you get the
