Bottom 9 Feeder guys here go back to Package (or wherever their seniority allows) Jan 18.
And so begins the domino effect.....
Atleast there on the bottom they could not even be on the list.Did you mean 9 bottom feeders?
I heard of one almost definite change.....new tires on my P7.
What?!!!?? Your center can still order tires???? Our center, or should I say District, doesn't have money for tires. (Or uniforms, or safety awards, or ....etc.)
Never going to happen. You'll get retreads on the back and racing slicks on the front. All the new tires with treads go to the packages cars in the southern states that don't get snow.
In my district, Missouri, They will stop day sort Jan 18. All day sort people will work this week, take next week as a lay off so they can start bumping in other sorts. I heard that people up to 7 years seniority could actually be out of job. BTW, this also includes 40 package car drivers who will be bumped into the building which is not going to help the low seniority workers. I also heard they are diverting a lot of volume to other centers. This doesnt make any sense because we are a huge hub. If anything, smaller centers should be closed and divert their volume to the major hubs like ours.Not many I imagine ... a rumor has to be credble and this one does not have any credibility. UPS is not going to reduce revenue in order to get rid of people.
If UPS has to, as hard as it may be to bear it, it will simply lay people off. It's a tough economy and tough business world.
But they will not do it by reducing revenue ... that does not make sense.
