[QUOTE="ORLY!?!, post: 1139749, member: 16334"] I understand this, yet in time we might see FedEx pick up its ground volume and even go union. I would love to see them go union to see how they will handle that situation. 14k starting and A/Ced buildings is a plus to most UPS workers. When FedEx first opened up across the street, they got a huge chuck of UPS workers and management to go with them. The majority that work here seem to only do it for healthcare reasons, they have other jobs or own a buisness. Conditions play a huge part in each person, weak or strong. They rather work in tempered, clean and the same conditions, even to opt out of the medical. One of the biggest reasons we get paid so little here is for the benefits. UPS deems this as another payment, in sorts. I'm sure if I or you get seriously hurt on the job or elsewhere, UPS would fight tooth and nail not to pay for those medical bills. You have to work to earn them, if you cant then your going to get the axe. There was a gent here that got hit by a semi after work hours, they put up paper signs asking us to donate money to him so he could pay for medical bills. I was like, WTF! He cant work, and for some reason his benefits arnt paying for his bills? The benefits seem to help out when we are sick or need a simple surgery. But get hurt to the point were you cant work anymore, and your done for good. I see a lot of BS here, on both sides, mostly on UPS side of course. I really only come to work for the show. I love a good show. [/QUOTE]
