Is UPS crying Poor (underfunded non-union retirement) for more major takeaways?

My sorry ass carries your Joe Union ass on a daily basis.

Lol yet we get paid the same! Love it!

Example #1
A person that is willing to forego a 5 year raise because he's retiring in 10 months is not a good union man. A good man is good to his kids. See the difference

I like Hoke's answer better.

Good man - can think for himself and makes decisions and takes care of his/her areas of responsibility.
Good Union man - Someone else does the thinking for them but they're loyal albeit dumb as bricks.

Union men are calculated. Way more intelligent than a manager.

Not shocked

Overall------not true.

 

[Article 3]

30:1? They can't fill open slots at 6:1, how in the hell are they going to fill them at 30:1?

That's an easy one.
They'll get their chance a long time later than expected.
For example-
6-1=s approximately 16.7% of opportunities
30-1=s approximately 3.334% of opportunities if I cyphered it real good.

 

[Article 3]

Some people are not that sharp ... be patient.

Careful. This isn't the Ed Sullivan Show. Sometimes the monkey act was pretty funny tho.

With any luck, after Dave retires, they will bring him back as a contractor in a pseudo-manager role.

He can strut his stuff and live his dream!

Why would they want to when they see runners like you killing yourself? So help us out and retire so we can get good union men into those positions again.

So, your definition of a good Union man is a sluggo?
Geez ... don't think I would have said that.

 

[Article 3]

Please explain the difference between a good man and a good union man.

About $30-40,000 a year plus pension.

 

[Article 3]

Ok, leave out the pension.

You completely missed the point.

Sluggo? Your words not mine. I'll take a guy that chooses their safety above all else instead of the pretend "safety first (but we don't mean it)" moniker of management.

News flash----it is possible to work both safely and efficiently at the same time.

You're correct! Just not at the expectations of a computer algorithm.

Not for some it seems and they try to drag down everyone else to their level so they don't look as bad.

I think UPS is hiring more drivers off the street than through P/T Union bidders.
I guess you weren't aware of that and missed the point ... but you appear a Union Man so expected.

I don't care how I look. I care about standing up straight after retirement and money in my bank. I provide an A to B service for UPS. That's it.

He's confused constantly and his communications skills are missing.
He can't even comprehend his own communications.

You made no sense there....carry on stoned old pirate boy...

I'm confused why you quoted me. I was just taking a fun jab at monkey butt.

I don't see where I quoted you??? The post had nothing to do with you.... we can all break down monkeybutt any way we please.... want to explain??
