Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.
Absolutely. Not even debatable.UPS always been a tough place to work, but I do think it was a better job 20 years ago than today.

Because we’re just like all the other shemps now.It was a better job 20 years ago and we actually provided good service for our customers. These days we cut 50% of our trips on Mondays and we're just pissing everyone off.
Hopefully we will change that soon.Because we’re just like all the other shemps now.
That's just a normal Wednesday at the moment. Nothing left to move unless they want me dumping missed packages out onto the belt.Plenty of guys in our center put 10.5-11 hours. They said they’d move the work to them.
Centers gave out forms last month for most drivers to fill out with a few questions plus how much they wanted to work each day. Even gave them to the cover drivers.What is a TSP?
You guys keep bringing this up, which is all well and good.Centers gave out forms last month for most drivers to fill out with a few questions plus how much they wanted to work each day. Even gave them to the cover drivers.
Indeed it’s a contract play. Somehow this will be used against us. Regardless if it works or not, and of course it wont. My guess is they will say they want part-time drivers to deliver so they can help you get off early and it’s the union standing in the way. Something like that for sure. A divide tactic.You guys keep bringing this up, which is all well and good.
But seriously, I remember them giving out forms with the same question 20 years ago, PROBABLY right before a contract vote.
Anyone else remember them doing this before?
They wouldalways buy us pizzas before the contract also...You guys keep bringing this up, which is all well and good.

My building already uses PT air drivers to bail out over dispatched ground drivers.Indeed it’s a contract play. Somehow this will be used against us.

Also heard that drivers would not be held in the building past a certain time and any volume not loaded in the cars in time would be held for the next day. Volume must be back to the building by 8.basically they asked every driver how many hours they want and what needs to be changed in order for them to make that time.
Won’t last long, flavor of the month.Also heard that drivers would not be held in the building past a certain time and any volume not loaded in the cars in time would be held for the next day. Volume must be back to the building by 8.
Yep I remember. It was a survey about our priorities for that contract cycle. Insurance and pension were the big ticket items then.(Remember the contract was three years then)You guys keep bringing this up, which is all well and good.
