[AKCoverMan]

I'll join you

I’m going with a delicious stout from local craft brewery Lazy Mountain. Yum!

After this week I feel nothing less will do lol.

Local mgmt knows their masters underplanned for us.. hard to believe seven FT drivers got 8 OT yesterday spending less than three hours to pre-preload for Monday but it will let us all deliver an extra hour and a half Monday so they are spending the money lol

My favorite PVD story was told to me about another member a year or so ago.

He went to the storage facility to check on a packages and it was a note from the PVD driver that I quit and nothing was delivered.

Yeah we had one show up start loading and then looking at the huge pile just said, “Nah, I’m out.”

center manager told me he followed one on first day got three stops done first hour and fell down twice. They mutually agreed this might not be the right job for her.

Blame the part timers who voted for that contract because they wanted that 500 dollar bonus and didn't care about long term impact.

You know that for a fact? I voted during that contract.

So did I. As a part timer then.

 

[PT Car Washer]

If you say so. Do you think that UPS employs more part-timers or full-timers?

In 1982 there were many more FT members. The two tier wage gave UPS the incentive to create many more PT jobs and less FT jobs.

How did you vote? I voted against the contract as I feared UPS would have an incentive to get rid of Red Circle PTers. Still here earning $38/hr for an unskilled job.

Did you happen to understand why I asked that very simple question?

 

[PT Car Washer]

I voted against it.

Reagan was President, middle of a recession. Union truck driving jobs were going out of business all over. Just glad to keep what we had at that point.

No. Enlighten me. Are you comparing the PT two tier wage to the current 22.4 two tier wage?

Reagan was pulling us out of the Carter recession.

With Union busting.

 

[Poop Head]

Still not vaccinated.

 

[Whither]

I can promise you I have read more on the subject in 2 years than you will read in a lifetime.
As an average, I read 75 books a year, on varying subjects.

WOW CONGRATULATIONS Did you break your arm patting yourself on the back? Get back to me when you've done some actual thinking.

Automation being the cause?
That is a modern phenomena used to keep labor costs down and most of the chips and computers are made "overseas".

A "modern" phenomena = a capitalist phenomena lol. Imagine, companies that stake existence on maximizing profits want "to keep labor costs down". And yet you still can't admit it, because you managed to do well for yourself. The enemy is not the union, not even the company, not even the government, but this idiotic way of life. And nevertheless you're just a peon just like the rest of us.

Still not vaccinated.

Aren’t you going in for your 12th Covid booster shot next week????

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

Aren’t you going in for your 12th Covid booster shot next week????

Man takes 10 COVID vaccine shots in single day

A man who was vaccinated against COVID-19 up to 10 times in one day on behalf of other people has sparked an investigation.
