[QUOTE="ups1990, post: 805077, member: 20195"] First, let me say this is a very intriguing topic. Many fine post have been written by members who in my opinion are very knowledgable in UPS matters. I had to sit down and meditate on this word of accountability. What is it? and who does accountability belong to? We can begin at home, we our accountable to our spouses and children. They are entrusting in us to provide for them and looking at us to be good husbands and fathers. When we falter and many of us do because no one person is always good hearted 100% of the time, then we see the look in their eyes and know we are being held accountable. UPS, does have the right to hold every one of their workers accountable union and non-union alike. This company has been around for over 100 years, there are only a handful of companies who can say the same. Without accountability from workers, UPS wouldn't have survived. I'm very fortunate to work in a group of hard working individuals who display a high degree of integrity and a deep concern for this company. I feel that, I'am accountable to them. These guys bring it every day, no matter what's going in their lives they come to work with energy and charisma to go along. If they are capable of working at a high degree of efficiency then so should I. As much it pains me to make mistakes, it's equally painful to tell on myself when I screw up. Accountability hurts when you're on the accountable side. Myself and many of you have invested our youth at UPS and subsequently missed many functions, school assemblies and graduations. The companies welfare is definitely in our best interest. With this said, workers who have a problem working at a high level and keep making the same costly mistakes, should be held accountable, because it affects the aforementioned, welfare of UPS. Over the last few years our center has gingerly gone after them to the point of termination. Even the union went as far as going along with the terminations. This is union workers point of view of accountability, as far as management goes, I'm not privy as to what goes behind closed doors but they too have to look at themselves in the mirror every morning.
