[QUOTE="NYJetsfan87, post: 5372084, member: 92723"] No matter what side of the fence you’re on , union or management this is just a sad story. A full time supervisor in my building that’s around 40 years old had a stroke and went into a coma. He is a nice kid. Pretty new so management didn’t have the opportunity to corrupt him yet. I’m not blaming UPS by any means. I’m sure there were other issues going on. However the tremendous amount of stress and the physical and mental wear and tear on all our bodies for both management and union is not good for our health. Working during that heat wave was especially bad. A fellow union worker of mine brought in a temperature gauge and it was over 115 degrees in the Nassau smalls sort. And we all have had UPS bosses that will work you till you die , not goto your funeral and then after you die replace you with one of their buddies. Like one of the full time supervisors in my building. They say he runs the smalls sort and is some kind of acting manager. He doesn’t touch a package and hides in offices most of the nights. That’s when he’s actually at work. He takes more time off then anyone that I can recall. But expects everyone else to come in when they are sick , have family problems , during a snow storm and during a heat wave. He has these other full time and part time supervisors running around here like chickens without heads making them work like animals and stressing them out like crazy. He embarrasses them on the radio. During the heat wave he was calling them on the phone , the radio and over the loud speakers non stop when the belts shut off. For the first time ever I felt bad for management. It must be a living hell working with that tyrant. In the cafeteria the other day they were already saying how this tyrant supervisor is trying to get one of his favorite part time sups the full time position that the person with the stroke had.
