[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 625544, member: 4653"] Pablo, I will just describe this. The UPS driver is constantly held acountable for his actions and performance. He is observed and ridiculed for every move he makes. If he makes one move that is not efficient than something is questioned. These moves are as simple as the supervisor saying "why are you looking at that package, its not even close to the one you need to select right now?". Next the UPS driver is held accountable for every accident. It doesn't matter if it was unavoidable, it still goes on his record. I'm followed every month by a supervisor because some teenager slid into the back of my package car 2 peaks ago in a snowstorm. She couldn't stop , she cried "I put on the breaks but they just started vibrating (her anti-lock brakes)". I just want to make it clear that we earn the union wage. I say this because most people held to the scutiny of UPS management would bail unless they were appropriately compensated. Pay the workers the DHL wage and they will be lazy and you will go out of business. Pay the workers a UPS wage and the will be the most productive in the world and you will be the largest package company in the industry. Which one do you think works? [/QUOTE]
