Putting in My Letter of Intent

[FrigidFTSup]

I also can leave early if needed and come in late....

 

[FrigidFTSup]

You should probaly spend more time concentratieng on lerning how to spelt

I think you have me confused with someone.

 

[FrigidFTSup]

Somebody should have explained that to my old center manager. Every single morning the preload didn't go down on schedule, he would tell us to code 'approved AM meeting.'

I think it was 073.

center manager here says O77 Safety and Wellness. Always have extra safety time at the end of the month.

So you mean UPS management is doing the same thing every company in America is doing? By golly that is disturbing!

One thing that doesn't seem to sink in on this forum is that the benefits you guys get is a rarity in America. Most of them are actually unheard of this day in age. A pension and no out of pocket cost for healthcare? Nearly nobody does that anymore.[/QUOTE]


Enjoy it while it lasts. I'm sure the company and union will both be in cut back mode next contract.

OP I wish you the best, but you have to slow down a little bit. There's some concerning things you are saying, that just aren't true. You're 2 weeks in. You may be an experienced driver, and I have a lot of respect for that. But you're in a new world. It's fresh, which can be exciting. But you have a TON to learn. What you've learned thus far is a drop in the bucket.

I was a PT Management employee for about 18 months, and now FT for about 3 months. I trained for about 6 months prior to going FT. There is so much I'm still learning. Not even just on the delivery side. That will be easy for you. But with timecards and the systems we use every day.

I also can take more days off as needed. If I take vacation during a holiday week it gets extended another day. I also can leave early if needed and come in late....

Selective quote there, I see.
Something was said about relocating management not being so much anymore, due to the cost.
You left off the end of my response which was
"I would not be surprised to see the Co. make Management pay their own moving expenses in the event of a transfer"
That is the essence of what you left off.
The part you quoted was the first couple of things taken away from management, and that paid moving expenses could be taken away as well.
Post #1414 I believe.

If you take out relocation costs nobody would relocate. It's that simple. It's standard in corporate America.

Is it just a coincidence that corporations are sitting on record profits and piles of cash? The money is there.

Because all the money is held in foreign countries with effective tax rates of 0%.

I also can get called in early if needed and leave late....

Fixed it for you....

Sorry, had to.

You forgot that most of them get tax rebates back in the form of millions.

 

[What'dyabringmetoday???]

Yes. We get our 6th week at 30.

This information is incorrect Dave. Sixth week is at twenty-five years. So that means you are wr,wro, wron, mistaken. Lol.

That as well. Part of the reason GE is moving their corporate headquarters from I believe CT to Boston.

I'm a Sup, we don't fix anything (I'm joking for those ready to pounce.)

In earlier posts didn't you say you got some of the issues resolved?

Certain things, not as much as I'd like though. Fixing preload is a full time job and then some.

His supplement/rider may be different.

His supplement/rider may be different.

We work in the same center. After I read his post I went to upsers to check my most recent pay stub and it turns out he is right. I guess I have one more vacation week that I can bid.
