I understand, my main concern is that the union will cave on something like pension or healthcare in order to up the wages. If they leave the benefits alone then fine. Do they account for whatever business we may lose to other shipping companies as well?
There is no way ever that the union will cave on healthcare or pensions before wages. It just won't happen. Especially now that most are in Teamcare. They need the UPS money to keep both up.
Nope that’s not how it works according to non-liberal he said “the numbers don’t matter” lol
Meaning business can be taken at any point by another company. And just because they’re making money isn’t going to stop them from replacing employees with technology when we get too expensive.Nope that’s not how it works according to non-liberal he said “the numbers don’t matter” lol
What's hilarious is you don't realize that even if we were cheap a business is still going to try and reduce labor costs. Injuries, sick time, personal time and whatever else is a hindrance to a company. Every company is always looking to eliminate that with technology.
We’re not cheap, never said to be cheap, just reasonable. 50 an hr. Isn’t reasonable. A company will deal with a union if they’re reasonable, and I think the teamsters will be. They understand they can’t lose ups. Yes companies will always try automation, it just makes it easier when you labor is out of control
Feeders doesn't bust you up physically,but it can be just as bad in other ways. Poor sleep habits, poor diet due to bad sleep habits. lack of exercise. I did it for almost 8 years. Gained 20lbs. Been retired since Dec. still can't sleep at night worth a
as you can see it's 4 a.m. and I'm up. Now maybe there are a lot of day runs in feeders where you're at, there were three day runs in my building out of 22, all were just package drivers delivering out of a feeder.....no thanks. Feeders is not a fix all by any means especially for guys with young families.I have a young family, and yes it’s hard to deal with. But I haven’t found a job yet that isn’t hard to deal with. I’ve worked for myself and three other companies before I came to ups. And im not saying this because im a “company man” but everywhere else I worked, was twice as hard for half the pay. Feeders does take a toll with sleep, but so did my own business. It’s just the lesser of all the evils for me. Everything has its good and bad no matter what you do.Feeders doesn't bust you up physically,but it can be just as bad in other ways.

Every job at UPS will take a piece of you, and your family will feel it as well. The company would like you to believe you make too much money and have too many benefits, and come contract time they will say you’re going to put them out of business and they’re going broke. The truth is if that were to ever happen it won’t be because of us it will be because of their poor decisions that run the company. The union will call their BS out they will sit down and go over the numbers and come to some sort of agreement. What that amount is I don’t know, I do believe it should be substantial for everyone for the life of the contract. I believe we are still a bargain for what we do and how successful the company has been.
FedEx is probably hiring sport.
Probably are…sport.
Then head over sport.
In before everyone else? Good thinking.
Shut your face sport.
Yo chief, how's the vending machines in the driver room at FedEx? Might be interested if the snack scene is happening.
Sure thing sport.
Couple dozen donuts as a sign on bonus would be hard to turn down.No doughnuts ? Not interested....
