[QUOTE="happyquitter, post: 122524, member: 819"] This message caught my eye because i also am a lurker not prone to posting. But, i do find it interesting that after me being gone from UPS for 21 years now it seems only yesterday that i was busting my hump in thoise old hot browns and crying about the dispatch on a daily basis. i guess some things will never change. I started with UPS in 1966 and worked as a clerk till I turned 21 and then drove package cars ,vacations,feeders,and back to package cars until I quit in 1986. I came to this board when I was trying to find out about pension info and I still visit now and then. UPS was agreat start for me as a job and the habits I learned have served me well thru the years.You learn to appreciate what real work is and what intense pressure is when you work at UPS. It does sound like the same problems exist that were common when I was there.There are other careers out there! I do agree with the one poster,I can't remember who, but they said that they just want both sides to be fair and that is why they bring up issues and problems for discussion. Unforunately, I am sure that just as it was with me over 20 years ago the most fair supervisors usually end up quitting before they can ever effect a change. The buddyholes that remain are the ones who cause the most trouble. Is there anyone from Indpls on the board and what do you do.I worked on 16th st. in the East and South and Feeders. [/QUOTE]
