[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 5653631, member: 14596"] Management didn't get a bonus. They got a small token of appreciation acknowledging the fact their pay during that time when calculated by hours worked, went way, way down. For most, the bonus did not come close to putting them back to even compared to their normal hourly pay rate. You were paid for every hour your worked and 1.5 times for every hour worked over 40 in a week. Your hourly rate did not go way, way down like it did for management. I do agree every person who came in and gave a fair days work during the pandemic *should* have gotten a bonus as a show of appreciation. However, as has been demonstrated in the past with shift and hiring bonuses during peak, had UPS done that, some locals would without doubt filed grievances and threaten law suits if UPS tried to do that as a one time thing and not made it a part of regular compensation. Zero doubt. The reality is the company must factor that expensive headache in when considering such gestures. [/QUOTE]
