[QUOTE="filthpig, post: 312315, member: 11456"] Well, you asked for it. I don't really pay that much attention to union or company leadership. Both have very little to do with how I do my job on a day-to-day basis. In my 20 years at UPS I have found that if I (or anyone else) shows up on time, does their job to the best of their ability, does what they're told and doesn't act dishonestly they will have a job as long as they want it. All of this whining I see here about "I got wrote up for nothing" or "I get hell and everyone else does the same thing and doesn't" is a bunch of crap. It just doesn't work that way. Jack Welch, the former CEO of GE put it best : "No one ever got let go who didn't see it coming." Simply put, if you're in the office all the time you had better start doing things different. I'm not saying let people walk all over you. We all know of a supe who has power trips and steps over the line. If they do it, talk to the union and get it took care of. But don't be one of these guys who walks around with a contract in his front pocket. That's just asking for it. You think your manager is going to like you making waves in his lake? Don't count on it. Remember: YOU work for HIM. Not the other way around. And can anyone her give me an example of a hub guy losing his job because a PT- supe was sorting? Gimme a break. The guy is probably just wanting to get done and is tired of watching Daiquon talk to LaTakweefwa instead of pulling his cage. Some people just think about this crap too much. [/QUOTE]
