[QUOTE="soberups, post: 587772, member: 14668"] Complaining about a time allowance is like complaining about the odds at a casino. The house makes the rules, and the house [I]always[/I] wins. Gambling odds and time allowances are similar in that they were [I]never intended to be fair or realistic in the first place.[/I] In a casino, they are mathematically and scientifically designed to extract revenue from the player and transfer it to the house; in UPS's case, they are mathematically and scientifically designed to create a "standard" that can only be met by working off of the clock. Either way, the house wins and you lose. There is no way to win. You can only keep yourself from losing by refusing to play. [/QUOTE]
