[QUOTE="westsideworma, post: 320906"] you get 1 a week? you'd be one of the best loaders in our center...if they're giving you a hard time just shrug it off. They used to harass me when I was a loader. I'd go 3 months without a misload and then I might have 1 or 2 one day and my god you'd think it was the end of the world. Nevermind I didn't have any 3 months prior, YOU HAD TWO!!!! ARGH YOU'RE GETTING A LETTER. I quickly responded, what about the IE guy that had 7 in one car? Was he fired for sabotaging the company?? You've just got to know the game they play. Doom and gloom is the thing with a lot of managers at UPS (not all). Its rarely as bad as they make it seem. What I was told when I was a loader, is that if you're getting misloads (like 1 or more a day) slow down and concentrate. However this doesn't seem to be the case with you. They CAN fire you for misloading, but only in extreme cases, but you can't be fired for your load rate but they can move you to a different area in your building. There are no specified load rates (despite what your management team may tell you) in the contract. The MAR or whatever they call it (some places its MSD) means absolutely nothing in the grand scheme concerning your continued employment. I wouldn't spout this off to your supe if you're a new hire, but if you've got seniority you've got nothing to worry about. [/QUOTE]
