[QUOTE="BD Gal, post: 376236"] [b]Re: FYI[/b] I am not on a soap box, I am making you aware of a position you not have otherwise heard. As for talking down to people, I didn't think I was doing that either and, with respect, the work I do pays everyone's wage. How much more clear can I be? If I don't bring on business, then drivers/handlers have NOTHING, NADA, ZIP to move. The talking points are BS; they told us not to say anything to customers and I have already lost three customers because of this issue - 1) they are wizzed off that nobody from UPS gave them a heads up (FedEx did!) and 2) they don't have to deal with this since FedEx is killing us on service and transit across the country. One guy even told me "you're lucky FedEx wasn't in the position in '97 that they are today...you guys would have never touched a package in 11 years"....now their business is gone. If my displeasure seems misplaced then perhaps the union needs to look at the BIG PICTURE rather than petty demands... BTW, BD management is every bit as big of @#$holes as they are in the center so don't tell me I don't know what it's like. [/QUOTE]
