these are all wonderful accuses that still don't deny the point that the union guides you folks on how to avoid accountability for your actions. In fact the union by its nature ends up fighting the hardest for the person that does the least or screws up the most.
Are you saying we should all start screwing up and doing alot less?? Time for plan C guys!!
When the numbers don't add up when a route has a split in it with overlapping pickups and conflicting time schedules with ssi accounts that are on a spread to far part to keep a good sporh and can't manage an over 80% compliance cause of these conflicts then yea,
I want the union to help keep me from being held accountable for a route that I DID NOT HAVE ANY PART OF PLANNING.
Look, maybe I'm a part time air guy/cover driver but I don't know of 1 (one) UPS
service provider that's lazy, nonproductive and doesn't have a strong wil to put in a good days work to earn his position so we should not be beat up over these numbers so harshly and written up. Note: haven't been written up myself but get to see the pushing first hand.
Anyone out there know of a slacker UPS driver??? I don't.
I know I busted my balls on split routes for 4 months and am getting lowered back into the part time on call Abiss after this wonderful labor day, even though I was promised that if I had let go of my 2nd job that they would keep me going all year round, even if it meant hopping between centers and hubs.
It's all about lies and twisted numbers and thats why we got our union.
I would due full time with less pay and no union if time allowance was correct and no threats of write ups for low compliance on a badly planned unrealistic pick schedule. We got routes with varies large pickup volumn with good custumers but they are spread apart but set for the same time and can't make em without picking up 1 early or just before they close to pull em off. We would you plan a day jeapordizing good productive volumn pickup accounts and risk lossing that bread and butter just for good numbers.
We got nothing if we can't keep them happy and that takes a better planned day. not overkilling commercial deliveries running them right into an overlapping 35 pickup set.
Use your heads and we wont need the unions.
When you routes going overallowed day in day out by the bid driver and a speedy, aggressive, risk taken, cover driver comes in with less overallowed but it still over an hour then maybe it's not the drivers, maybe it's the plan for that route that's at fault!!!!!!!
