[QUOTE="postaldrone, post: 3554825, member: 72946"] The "company" that delivers UPS packages their last mile received a gift in 2010 courtesy of the national union president approving the two-tier wage structure hiring support employees at almost half of what older-timers made and with less benefits. As a result, those with more seniority have been treated beyond horribly on daily basis in order to get them to retire. The newer hires are treated like royalty and from what I have witnessed, do not have to work much. They are free to roam the halls and spend as much time as they want on their phones and no one says a word to them. In my opinion, that was the worst contract that was ever negotiated. For those that did not vote in favor of it back then, all of the I-told-you-so's did not make working conditions any more bearable. The two-tier wage structure that UPS wants to put in place has already been tried and it has been a miserable failure from an employee standpoint. It has already been implemented at the "company" and with the UAW as well. It pits workers against one another and the day to day is a nightmare. [/QUOTE]
