[QUOTE="freeloader, post: 255095, member: 12163"] I had heard of this website a few years ago but I never knew there was a forum for TSG/TSC/IS. This is great because I thought I was alone feeling the way I did. It is great to see that there are others out there that had the same struggle that I had. Originally I was a UPS lifer. I planned to stay there until I retired. I encouraged my co-workers to stay if they ever brought up quitting. As PMT, HDFS and automation came along I started to read between the lines. Now I am telling my old co-workers to get the hell out of there. I am not sure what things are like since I left a year ago. I do know that they are assigning TSG managers two districts now and I really wouldn't be surprised if January 2008 brings more cuts. With the contract hanging in the balance UPS will be looking to cut costs. Regarding the layoffs and people going to other positions. As a technical person, I wouldn't want to take another position if it wasn't technical. Why would I want to be a driver, operator or whatever when my specialty lies in technology? I would have rather quit (or take the buyout) if I was put in that position. Someone mentioned opportunities in corporate IS back in the Summer of 2006. I heard about this and considered doing it. My boss said they were looking to recruit some district TSG to be moved to corporate IS. I decided not to do it because of the cold weather and insane cost of living that exists in NJ. I also was told that the consolidated TSC in Nevada was looking for supervisors. I declined to pursue that as well. I know the new TSC probably needed the staffing and management, but I have always wondered what prompted the corporate IS recruitment to district TSG. I had never seen anything like that offered before and just thought it was very strange - almost too good to be true. Does anyone know what became of that recruitment? [/QUOTE]
