[QUOTE="island1fox, post: 1224032, member: 4816"] :wink2:I realize threads can get off topic --I am also guilty. The main point of this tread was SPOR harassment ----Simply stated if you are doing the job ----you can easily stop the Harrassment . If you are a slacker ---one way or the other --it will eventually be worked out. Now off topic --just depends on where you are in life. I am a 36 yr of Service -retired ups'er. "Older Drivers"--Upsers and Teamsters --always told me how tough the job was --when they were out there--long days --furniture deliveries --paper delivery records with carbon paper--wet frozen ink pens -leaving the barn every day because the belt to bin to car preload always ended late --dispatched with "piece count" loads --four to five hundred packages --crushed into a p400 with net-edge load packages in the front --and orange bulk cards for all the bulk out of the back. P400's with piss in the safes --that you had to collect thousands of dollars in singles for COD'S---paper yellow call tags, paper one shots --never counted in stop total-paper driver tracers --same OJS and over supervision ---with real supervisors who drove for many years--long wool pants in the hot muggy summers--scheduled "fur call" pickups and Saturday specials in many areas --guilty till proven innocent --dopey mgrs. --with the power to fire or suspend immediately --a union that was slow to spend money on lawyers and arbitration --no grievance panels --They could go on and on and on. Lower pay and less benefits etc etc I always listened with respect. I was always thankful they passed on a profitable solid Company that provided me with a job with good pay and benefits. I never referred to them as "relics" When some of you retire -- --you will see it the same way. When Drivers are complaining about "beaming" their deliveries and how sore it makes their thumbs ---calling you "relics" and "out of touch" "Do not know how hard it is to work at UPS. Never DISRESPECT the older --wiser --been there done it Retired UPS'er ---It will be you one day --No doubt about it !!! Thank you to all the hard working UPS people of today for allowing me to continue to enjoy my retirement ---you too TOS !!:peaceful: [/QUOTE]
