[QUOTE="proups, post: 54574"] The "Teamster friendly" remark is true, whether we like it or not. UPS has the hardest working, highest paid drivers in the industry. I'm not saying drivers don't earn their pay, but it does impact the bottom line. You can't blame it on excess management either. Take a look at the on-road supervisors. How many of them who have been promoted in the last several years have come from the driver ranks? Not many. Drivers that work overtime actually make more than their supervisors in base pay. What kind of sense does that make? I think every employee at UPS will be impacted by the poor 4th quarter 2004 financial results. We'll just see what happens. Look at the airlines - asking union employees for concessions at every opportunity and cutting management jobs. UPS may not react this aggressively, but there will be a reaction. [/QUOTE]
