[QUOTE="Griff, post: 290671, member: 7111"] The numbers and allowances are changed for SOME people. I'll give you a nice story to disprove all the people claiming otherwise. One of the runners in our center routinely gets 3-3.5 hrs of bonus. He noticed his bonus start to dwindle little by little over 2 weeks until he was down to about 50 clicks of bonus. Needless to say he was furious, so he told the center manager he would not be bidding on it again. Very shortly after that talk he was back to his 3-4hrs of bonus. What a coincidence, I guess we should chalk it up to a modern miracle. This isn't some tall tale from the locker room, I know this guy real well and he showed me his paychecks. Edit -- So it makes more sense as to why they would accommodate him I will give you some insight on the route. Nobody else in the center can run bonus on the route. The route has been turned into hell on earth (far too many stops) because of his running and skipping breaks. No one in the center wants to bid it and he's the only one who can handle it -- so he has management in a corner. If he bid off the route I'm almost positive they would have to add an entire new route next to it. [I][B]The whole thing is a joke[/B][/I] and that's why the union wants nothing to do with the bonus system or UPS's time studies/allowances in general. You're represented by the union and the union does not recognize the numbers, it's that simple. [/QUOTE]
