when ups puts in an all autonomous fleet and tells us were only worth minimum wage. who's gonna load and unload all these trucks and trailers. the only reason 99% of these part timers are there is for the good paying full time driver job at the end of the tunnel. with no good paying full time job there is no reason for anyone to stay working here.
yes, you think we're still gonna have our benefits when this whole thing plays out. I figured I wouldn't have to spell it out for you. pay AND benefits will most likely disappear.There are quite a few PTers who are here only for the benefits.

regardless. the number of partimers there waiting for a full time job drastically outweighs the number of part timers who work for benefits.This. If they decided that they were never going to hire another driver again in my building, we wouldn't lose very many part-timers. But if a contract were somehow negotiated wherein we part-timers would lose our existing benefits (without raising wages significantly--about $5/hr, at least), nobody would be left.
Eh... Disagree. At least at my location and a nearby one where a friend works. Seems split about 40/40/20. 40 percent want full time jobs, 40 percent want benefits (mostly college kids wanting help with school) and 20 percent are just kind of there I guessregardless. the number of partimers there waiting for a full time job drastically outweighs the number of part timers who work for benefits.

oh my God who cares. the point is there will not be anyone there to do the work. there would be no point to working at ups.Eh... Disagree.

This has already been covered.Heard this presented by a respected car talk guy.
When, not if but WHEN there are Driverless cars where the person inside has no steering wheel or brake pedal, and there is a crash where a person dies, who does the victims Family sue?
Hard to sue the person in the car who had no means to avoid the collision.
Therefore, who else besides the Auto Manufacturer can be sued?
So, as lawsuits against the Manufacturers climb, and having to defend themselves, and pay claims, the costs of cars will skyrocket.
