[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 52793"] Having been on both sides, I can see both sides. Bottom line is the reason UPS is succesful is because somehow we still manage to do it all, no matter the workload. Those of us who still do it, is because of pride. I have to admit it is getting almost impossible at times, but all I can do is try. At the end of the day after all is done, I dont any longer care what the standards say although I used to take pride in it, I know it is now bogus, and so do my sups, and I dont hear a word. I dont know what happened to them but they are wrong, and I have asked to go through them and compare day to day where they are almost identical and can vary by an hour and no one wants to and it comes down to they are doing a job too, and know the calcs are wrong but they work for someone too. And I think all of us work to live, not live to work. So I just work, with the ethic installed in my upbringing. When they find a reason to get rid of me, I guess they will but as long as I am doing what I can, no one seems to question my times. I have had jobs that you just stand around but the pay was 5.15 an hour, or less, so I guess til something better comes along or I get canned, I will work my best. I want to complain about the long hours, but when I see people unemployed at my age, I think NAH, Ill just work. Because they would like to be making 105.00 bucks in OT, instead of 45.00 bucks per day, if that. [/QUOTE]
