Oh, well in that case, LOAD ME UP!! I'd love to make UPS look better in spite of my sanity.

Its your job to take their money. Do it and do it well.

Mail Delivery On Christmas Day! USPS Says Yes, They're Working



And here we are crying about a Saturday.

Well yeah, they have to work tomorrow...cause they don't the other 364 days of the year.

Dammit, couldn't find a Package guy who would take me along as a runner .....errr...helper.... today!

 

[AlliSeeisBrown]

LOL. Showed up at 10:30am....Got EDD....10 stops. 10 dense stops close to the hub. Fired up the PC for 30 minutes and called it a day.....

 

[Over 70]

Ran 20 something airs and I'm home already with my family close by and beer in hand. Not bad at all...

 

[Scoot]

16 stops, 18 pkgs. Home in time for the 1:00 kickoffs. The Saturday aspect sucks but this is the earliest I've been home on Christmas Eve in years.

I would never show up for just 30 min of work. Not worth my time.

Or get stuck in traffic, pull over and let them come get you when you ran out of hours.

Ran out of hours Friday night. No Saturday for me. Guys doing my area are done and home. Lobbying for Tuesday off too. 6 of us ran out of hours. Just not looking forward to the UPS bull shot from January to September. For the 29th yr. I friggin hate it.

The teamsters Union will never go for that. I thought it a couple yrs ago. Not now. It's more about the insurance coverage for me. Still waiting for the pension final out come. Plus the '18 contract with another Hoffa concession fest.

The insurance coverage keeps getting more expensive for the retirees and the guarantee of the pension keeps getting worse.

If we work Saturday, aren't we just feeding the monster that is, "ship it now, I can't wait"?

 

[By The Book]

That and the 8 hour guarantee if it applies.

Yes. I was speaking with a retiree last week at lunch break. He said its 200 a month for he and his wife. Which isn't too bad. But after 30 plus years it should be free my feeling anyways. They and we earned it. Its the union who squandered it. For all. As soon as the feds left. The corruption started right up

Before this contract it was 50/100
Currently it's 200/400

I was on my way work to this morning and received a phone call from the supervisor asking me if I wanted to stay home and I stated I will see you Tuesday.

The good news. He did say the insurance is better this yr compared to 2 yrs ago. When he first retired. So there must be an improvement.
