[QUOTE="mercury7, post: 1258578, member: 51725"] Peak wasn't just about the ice causing delays my building was running seven days a week having back to back sorts when it's usually 5 days a week with two sorts (preload & twilight) and couldn't catch up. I haven't seen a mess like that since the strike. Pkgs piled up and damaged everywhere. The company took on more than we could handle. Like one of my favorite upsers said, "you can't fit 10lbs of crap into a 5lb bag without making a mess", Something has gotta change. The warning signs have been there. UPS just refuses to acknowledge them. Managers constantly taking stress leave for years, some forced to work 20 hour days. Management working full time hours with no break of any kind and it's expected. We are not machines. They completely ignore the human element. [/QUOTE]
