Unions promote mediocrity.
Going above and beyond is frowned upon.

When I worked inside P/T sups didn't take breaks. When we were on our 10 minute breaks they were furiously running around trying to get trailers pulled & replaced/buttoned up, etc.

Look around. There are plenty of lazy non-Union workers out there.
We got pizza for not having an accident in 46 days, Our previous record was 45 days, When I and 10 other guys who get beat daily got in, all gone. I have not only done 45 days, I have done 20 years. Thanks, just thanks.
reload got the rest, and they get fed every week or so.

There are those who try to use their seniority to bully the Mechanics. How long you've been a driver makes no difference to me.

I can understand not busting your behind to make production or some other number, but yeah there's some union folks who downright make the rest of us hub workers look like superstars. I have noticed many of them are also the ones who file the most supervisor working grievances. I do have to agree with management sometimes when it comes to these people. They spend 15 minutes multiple times a night walking away from their work area, talking to people and maybe wandering towards a restroom, but they'll make sure to stop their wandering to tell a supervisor they saw them touch a box.

Here's my advice. Do you're job and
off. Let management worry about it
Though if you are on the preload or some other team sort I can see why you would be pissed. Don't work harder to make up for these people. Work at your pace. Let management worry about hiring more people to pick up the pace. Don't work harder or you will never get help

Does it set you free?
I dont work with any lazy people. And my union does not tell me I can be lazy. Are there bad people who keep their jobs because they have a union, possibly. Are there good people who get shoved out the door, to be replaced by a younger, prettier/ handsomer person, and do not have a union, absolutely.
People need to mind their own business.
Im a pm clerk part time. We have a new coworker, shes been with ups for 14yrs, and is currently learning the clerk job.
She refuses to learn or help. She walks around our hub most of the night, on cell phone, etc.
Peak is coming and this chick doesnt want to learn the job. Its extremely disrespectful to start a new job and not give a fugg about ur coworkers.

Yes, however people need to show some fugging respect for others.

I do agree the majority of upsers are hardworkers. It seems that 1 out of 10 is a freeloader. Just like any other job. Unions are no different.
Im just venting a little bit. i am ignoring her now, but once peak season comes, our workload as clerks triples, im gonna get pissed.

Bringing reproach on our union brothers & sisters is a punk scab move.

That’s Craptacular
They hide in the office for half the sort. I will literally get texts from my PT sup from the office...oh go see if so and so needs help. And he leaves the trainees unsupervised....and then complains when they have a dozen off routes. Hmm... I wonder why?
