[QUOTE="gman, post: 54277"] u1st, ""I don't care if you loose your job or loose hrs but this is the start of UPS buying companies to reduce ot and prepare for 2008"" What makes you think UPS wants to reduce OT???? Where is the money saving??? If it were cheaper to put less runs on the road, they would have done that looooong ago. Less is more, sir. Less vehicles, less travel time to and from building, aka dead head time with NO PRODUCTON, less benefits, less comp, less training....and on. A good roadway driver delivers maybe 25 stops a day and the cost of running and maitaining the rig he drives far exceeds that of a pkg. car that lasts 25 plus years. Most companies I know of prefer to work their work force overtime as opposed to hiring more people. My brother in law works at a GM plant and works 16 hours a day 7 days a week. He's making a fortune and GM loves it. [/QUOTE]
