Reducing our hours now to make us unprepared strike later.

[Shorts365]

I noticed that hardly anyone in our center is getting the overtime they used to, and that management is pushing people to code 5. Sorry for putting on my tin foil hat, but I think they're intentionally trying to hinder our ability to save so that we'll be more tempted to cross the line in August. Also we have about thrice as many on-roads as we did this time last year. Thoughts?

I think it's because they are training seasonals.

My bet is on pre-peak casual drivers burning up stops. Take off the tin foil hat.

If you waited until now to save a strike fund, you are screwed. Don't blame the company .

Yep. Enjoy some rest time before January 1 When normalcy returns

We make 100k and some in your center don’t have a slush savings fund. WOW. They’re in trouble

So have you decided whether you're going on strike next August because your working too many hours or not enough?

You and your stanky ass wife both don't need 2022 vehicles. Buy a 1990 civic and share it. She sits around and eats bonbons all day anyways. She don't need no Mercedes.

I get that they're training up the peak guys and worthless PVDs to an an extent, but the amount that they already have deployed seems excessive. I personally am in a good spot for an unpaid vacation next August (no kids, low overhead), but a lot of us are financially irresponsible, to say the least.

If Sean is as good as everyone claimed him to be then there will not be a need for a strike.

Should have started saving before now

Easy now that ass is fine

This happens every year at this time. The seasonals start and the hours dip. Then peak hits and half the people that were complaining about losing hours are now crying about getting too many hours.

You can never make everyone happy

Take the easy days while you can get them because you know it doesn't last long

Good one, boomer. 90's Civics are now classics, with an appropriate price tag

Last year overtime was a free for all even before peak but the year before it was slim pickens in the month leading up to peak. Now it's like the year before last where it's not easy to find overtime but that's because they actually did get a bit ahead of the game on staffing up preparing for peak.

If any of you need some more work you can cut my grass and rake the leaves. Retired and don't have the time or ambition.

They’ve been working PVD’s since November 1st, ran 47 of them today. After 4 years of running them, UPS has definitely worked out a lot of the kinks. Guys have seriously gone from bitching about excessive overtime to an excessive amount of unpaid bills. We all knew this was coming, this is the new UPS.

Don't care about hours as long as it's somewhere between 40 and 50 hours a week. All i really am mad about is PVD, gateway drug to the gig economy, and I don't even own a personal vehicle anymore LOL
