National UPSers moment of silence for Frank Ordonez today (12/9/19) at 17:00 EST

[DELACROIX]

Would of the police recklessly opened fired if by chance Hunter Biden or Eric Trump was the hostage?

Just "Collateral Damage" by "Friendly Fire".

In our building the flag outside was not in the half mast position yesterday during the funeral..guess it did not matter that much...a microcosm.

Most people would think their odds were better outside with the police than to take on armed hijackers. Unfortunately, that was disproven here.

Yup. I'm sure by crawling out he expected the police would protect him, not kill him.

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

The police should have waited it out, waited till they ran out of ammo

The robbers or the cops? It appeared to me that the cops were just getting warmed up.

No message was sent out where I am.... not a whole lot said about it from management.Drivers have been talking about it a lot though RIP brother.

 

[nostrebor]

I, as an OMS, got a Broadcast Message marked Urgent through the PCIS system to message the drivers. I got the message at 16:05. It took me 3 messages to fit it all to be sent to my drivers' diads but it said nothing about the 4 way hazards being on. I felt bad after I saw that posted (already forgot where - I googled Frank and it came up on the internet, probably the post about why a driver would be pulled over to side of road at 5pm Eastern).

What a joke. Pretending they care, after thanking the police who murdered Frank.

Always some Ignorant A-hole!

Perhaps you’d like to be pulled over for going 5 mph over the speed limit.

 

[Old Man Jingles]

doesn't surprise me that nothing was said or a moment of silence was initiated. This company has lost its feeling for family, accidents, and death of a fellow employee. A man was crushed on the drop dock where I work in the middle of the afternoon and the managers told everyone to go back to work. I thought you were supposed to call a team of hardship people in to consul everyone so they don't have traumatic episodes later.

That’s for women’s workplace.

Excuse me, grandpa?

 

[Old Man Jingles]

Excuse me, grandpa?

Obviously you wouldn’t understand!

I read today that it was determined that 18 officers opened fire on the UPS truck. I think it was like 16 of them were town cops.

 

[Airbear]

As if fully 18 of them had a clear LOS on an identified suspect/shooter... Yahoos were unloading. Fire 'em, jail 'em. For the love of all things holy at the very least retrain those pathetic SoBs.

I know some people were curious about how they could help.

My shop steward sent me this. Apparently it was sent to our local this morning.

The 911 audio released also points to 4 passenger cars hit with gunfire, at a minimum

I heard a 911 today of a guy calling saying a bullet went right through his daughters car seat, luckily she wasn’t in it that morning he said.

Still waiting for the result of the investigation into who actually shot dead an unarmed hostage.....
