[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 825663, member: 484"] Well if we are to believe one thing you posted, this is not one. Really? So instead of reality from hundreds, you would rather hear "I can run a 9.5 hour dispatch in 6 hours, then go home and work my real job"? The mind set of management. How is a day that is delivered in 6 hours even possible to be a 9.5 dispatch? There is no reality to his or your statement. Either the poster is lying, or your numbers dont mean a thing. So what we are left with is you admitting the numbers you place in front of the drivers are arbitrary, and not founded in reality, or you are pleased to hear what you want to hear, even though it is a lie? So which one are you interested in pursuing? As someone that has been through the termination process many times, both as a steward and once as an employee, losing your job is very tough. Before the loss or threat of losing the job, we tend to get very accustomed to the income and the life style that comes with a good income. We tend to lose sight of what working pretty much as hard, but for a third of the wages represents. In todays job market, there are opportunities, but not like there were years ago. So for someone with only a high school education, there are limited options, especially at the income the employee is used to. And even more limited once you apply for a job making 1/3 of what you were, and they find out you used to work at UPS. That sends up all sorts of red flags. In my experience, even though an employee talks like they dont need the job, in every case I have represented, they are willing to do anything to get back the job they lost. So with the exception of the gift part, you are dead on. d [/QUOTE]
