[QUOTE="TSG_Lets_Unionize, post: 86562, member: 4746"] First of all I am NOT going to post my RRDD on here, as I prefer to speak openly and not worry about who might be reading it. Why aren't you posting your RRDD? Secondly, I'm no "union front man". I'm not a normally a pro union person, but I think in the current environment union makes a lot of sense. UPS basically treats us with the same contempt they hold towards the unionized folks, but we have NONE of the union protections. How many times have you heard stories about drivers getting fired, and then returning to work after a couple of weeks? Now, how many technicians have you heard of that happening to? I didn't think so. I don't believe UPS owes anyone anything, and I firmly believe that everyone should pull his or her own weight. I, for one, am tired of the double standard. When it's convenient, we are treated like professionals, partners even. Then when they want to drive home some ridiculous point, we are treated like kindergartners, hourlies that can not form a thought for ourselves or left alone for a minute to just get our jobs done. In a twisted way, the company would benefit as much as the technicians if we just sign the ink to the way we are already viewed. - [/QUOTE]
