[QUOTE="sortaisle, post: 1126176, member: 17605"] The language was too sketchy. No real enforcement in keeping the jobs in the same building. We "moved" around...15 jobs to Seattle/Portland at one point, but in my building I can kind of understand...our shifts are sometimes 2 hours apart and it's difficult to combine them and not have them standing around. There's only so many smalls bags to fold and responding one can do. Most of our jobs are night/preload. They're the only shifts that almost run into each other. And somehow UPS gets away with subcontracting the car wash. When I worked in Portland they were combo jobs. They had a guy they hired before that who washed the trucks and he did it for 20 years before UPS made the jobs combo. He was offered a combo job on the spot so he wouldn't get fired. That was classy imo and something that UPS doesn't really do much of anymore. [/QUOTE]
