Retired management coming back for peak

bitter to the bone

Just curious if there are any retired supes that have come back to work through peak? One of the supes that retired from my center just recently came back. Not as management or anything just as a glorified babysitter. Working through an outside agency.

Still has the same cocky attitude as when he was working for UPS and still plays favorites. I don't see any reason for him being there. He retired 5-6 years ago. He's really out of touch with how things are running now. He expects the building to run like it did when he ran it. He doesn't even take into consideration that we have way more volume and fewer people to run the sort and is always riding everyone's backside to work harder. We are busting hump to get the job done and our sort supe has never complained about how we are doing. Why the heck would you want to come back after retiring to begin with. Must not have much of a life

Because they pay them good and they get that money on top of their pension

I may have mentioned this before but as far as I have heard we only had one retired driver who came back for peak and he was always the company ass kisser anyway. Why on gods green earth would anyone want to return to that hell hole after they retire?

Yup, we have plenty of retired management come back for Peak. Drivers too...

I witnessed a funny encounter between an retired old school manager who came back for Christmas a couple of years ago and a young part timer, didn’t see or know what happened but I heard the part timer yelled that the Manager was “a despicable human being” as she was leaving ... I just laughed...😂

Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.

Remember when they come back its all the good things about being in mgmt and none of the bad. You get the juice of coordinating the operation. BUT you work 8 hours a day, no conference calls, no injury presentations for Liberty Mutual, no real production pressure, and light at the end of the tunnel. Usually when you leave, you don't miss the circus but you miss some of the clowns so you go back and see them....
