New Training Designed To Oppress

[Coldworld]

UPS has always been a harsh company to work for, I totally agree. But when we started focusing more on those measured numbers and "service" took a second place seat, I knew it was only time before the Center managers and Supervisors also got a second place seat, those guys are not taken care of and made to feel as the partner they once were. UPS does have the technology to measure better with, but that doesn't effect me. It effects management. They can replace management with a manager from Auto zone now. All you need to be able to do is Run reports, we use to call that a secretary .

You shouldn't compare auto zone to ups ... Auto zone managers are much more competent ....

 

[Coldworld]

More than their employees are.

Really...what is your logic behind this ??

When they agree to take a $10 PER HOUR cut in pay so they can be treated like minimum wage workers.

The contract squeaked by last time.

I can't see the same concessionary contract getting passed next time.

Ups pays their part timers minimum wage and look at how they push those people... Game over, thanks for playing ...

The Teamsters are the one's that decide what the Part-timers make per hour ... not UPS.
UPS does pay more than $10 an hour when they find a way to work around the Teamsters.

ORION version 3 will be in place by then and many of the trace issues resolved.

They did get a raise from the Federal government. 10.10 an hour

Too bad H* couldn't get a better wage for them.

Thanks Dan.

And some employees are over worked and abused.

I hope so!
Have to balance out the slackers.

Thanks Dan.

No problem P*.

Not that many slackers. Except the ones not wearing browns.

I think in the next contract the part timers may get a substantial raise. According to the numbers, UPS has cut out enough of the Supervisors benefits, to offset the difference. Some of the single part timers may agree to carry some of management spouses on their insurance. We can at least try to negotiate it.

I'm sure @Turdferguson doesn't wear brown!

He does

And their employees are much nicer and appreciate their lower paying/less stress job.

Probably right

 

[Catatonic]

The employer is responsible to provide a safe working environment for their employees.

Do you think ups is fulfilling this???

More than their employees are.

Most injuries are the result of employees not working safely or not paying attention.

We have one who is out on coo-coo leave.

That's rather demeaning to the driver, Daryl.

I'm sure he/she loves you, too.

I thought ken was a master negotiator ....??? If these two don't watch it next time we are going to loose much more than 4 year progression .....they better step up big time

Not unless the drivers are willing to give back some of their compensation which the drivers got by negotiating away part-timers pay and benefits.

Who else thinks this is a personal attack?
