[QUOTE="kingOFchester, post: 445420, member: 11246"] On a serious note, I do believe that there is enough to blame to go around...including the UAW. Part, and I say PART of the problem was the job banks program (as well as the CEO's "flying high" ). In a nut shell, laid off members received full salary and benefits during periods of unemployment. Thankfuly that concession has already been given. Now, as far as UPS needing a bailout, could happen, but not as likely. UPS can downsize (layoffs) as the volume drops. Now, Imagine if we couldn't be laid off and the volume dropped 30,40, 50%! Basicly we showed up and got paid to play cards in the hub. How could UPS or any company stay profitable? Again, that certainly isnt the entire problem. But certainly added a lot to their sitation. take 12,000 employees that were not working, costing...lets say even 60.00 an hour......thats arouns 28 million a week that the company could of been saving for a long long long long time!!
