[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 475920, member: 9789"] I find this topic very interesting. I realize it has been a million years since I was in any of the driver's shoes when it comes to 9.5 hours. Please take this as an outsider looking in.... In today's economy when there are so many people either out of work or losing their homes or facing pay cuts or freezes, I find it laughable that many of you are so concerned about working over 9.5 hours. You may be singing a different song if the company (God forbid) lays you off in the coming months. There is no guarantee that this recession is going to get better. It could get much worse. You should take what you can get and BANK your money. You never know what is going to happen in the next 6 months or year. Be glad you are working 9.5 hours or more. It is my opinion that this recession is going to change the mindset of X and Y gen way of thinking. Especially those who lose it all. It won't take long for the philosophy of the Great Generation and the Baby Bomers to take root in their mindset if this continues to go the way I think it is heading. This is one time that I hope I am so wrong. [/QUOTE]
