[QUOTE="worldwide, post: 1172116, member: 2193"] Sounds like you made a decision based on what you thought was best for you and your family at that time. At this point you can continue with that decision or make a change since the situation at UPS (and the world) has changed. If being in the union is something that looks more appealing to you, there is nothing preventing you from making a job change (within or outside of UPS). While being empathatic to fellow workers whose jobs have changed is a nice quality, it does not change the reality of the world economy. UPS is not a unique corporation - it will do what it has to to grow and prosper - that is its primary obligations to shareholders. If moving a call center to India or Honduras helps to achieve those goals, so be it. Technology is changing the world and job needs at every company. Employees can adapt to the changes (which may require new skills, additional education, a change in assignment or even a change in employers) or can do nothing and then be surprised when their job is changed or eliminated. If your current job situation is not meeting your current or futture needs, what are you doing about it (besides posting on BC)? [/QUOTE]
