I think it makes a huge difference....
With healthcare costs increasing significantly, someone has to pay.
I'd like to know how they came to this decision.
I guess you do not?
UPS screws Union AND Management...but in this case its just the Management.

No, my opinion means nothing to the award winning decision makers so my understanding is irrelevant.

Seems no ones opinion matters once you leave the corporate offices and get in the real world

B.C. boohoo buster.
According to the latest Supreme Court ruling most "managers" are not even defined as supervisors. The only names I ever saw on a warring letter was the division manager. Every "manager" under them, according to the Supreme Court, are no more than co-workers.
The majority decision, written by Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr., rejected the definition of “supervisor” advanced by theEqual Employment Opportunity Commission as someone authorized to take “tangible employment actions” or direct the employee’s daily work activities.
Rather, the court ruled that being a supervisor should be limited to someone authorized to take “tangible employment actions” like hiring, firing, promoting, demoting or reassigning employees to significantly different responsibilities.

I think the courts in California used similar language a few years back.
That had to do with excessive hours worked with no additional pay as I remember.

I have to say that I'm starting to not feel sorry for the management group (and I am part of this group). You get beat up constantly and then vote to give the individuals making the decisions 10 votes per share giving them total control without the accompanying financial risk. You threaten to stop contributing to UPSPAC every year and then contribute. We're told that legislation is the reason for the benefits changes yet you'll contribute again. You threaten to reduce or cut off United Way contributions but you don't. Why would anything change? I am not suggesting a course of action but I don't know why anyone would expect things to be different next time around.

Same. We get used and taken advantage of and then re-elect the same group so they can keep doing it to us. It seems like humans have a subconscious need to be mistreated once in a while so we take steps to keep it going.

seems we all like the misery we've grown accustom to versus how much worse the next guy can make it. On a brighter note I doubt the next ceo can makes being in ops any worse than this one already has...

Only an anonymous survey would reveal the truth on that, and it would be an unexpected result

Why do you think the response would be unexpected?
