[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 4804923, member: 77939"] Ok. Define that(fine line) please. I have known many folks at UPS throughout my career. Most of the folks that have been fired/quit(and it stuck) were serial filers/trouble makers/scamming the system/drug/alcohol addicts/accident prone/hotheads....a lot like many on BC. They just couldn't fit in......and met early demises(however that went). Again, you don't know me. Pick your battles carefully. You can't count on Union representation(witness here on BC), Mgt. or your fellow employees being truthful(lying to save themselves). It's easy to be cavalier on the internet. Tough sounding even.....bluster and hate.....very easy. I know that when I commute to work, certain things are going to happen. It'll vary somewhat....an accident, train etc....now and then. When I get to work, it'll vary sometimes.......tractors not there, trailers aren't there, dispatch is in disarray, mgt. is in disarray, pandemic....whatever. Tractor is filthy, not fueled, bathroom is filthy on and on. It's been this way for 40 years(Cali. to NY)......despite pompous declarations by others. You work around and carry on. I'm a pilot and certified aircraft mechanic.....if I have an issue...I fix it/deal with it.....just as in life and UPS. I just cut out the dead weight......see above^. Shrug. [/QUOTE]
