Seasonal Covered Under New Contract?

[BigUnionGuy]

Is that something added under the latest contract? When I was a seasonal years ago I was told I definitely wasn’t covered.

Why do you care ?

You couldn't hack it at UPS.... and bailed to Fred- Ex

I worked for 4 weeks in 2024 as a seasonal support driver. I had $50 deducted from each of my checks for union dues. The last week that I worked, I only had about 10 hours, so that is $5/hour going to the Union. That is robbery!

No it’s not robbery because without paying that $50 per week there is no job.

Maybe, maybe not. Like tons of seasonals, they didn’t offer me a permanent job. FedEx definitely has problems. But treating employees as poorly as UPS treats theirs isn’t one of them. For me, a better fit and no ulcers.

I care because the union shouldn’t be stealing money. At least not so obviously.

My apology. Extortion.

I get it.

Not everyone has the physical ability or mental acuity to make a career out of it.

It's a pass through job, just like the amazon drivers
It's not a career
