[QUOTE="Ptrunner, post: 317328, member: 14530"] Tieguy, Im the one with the back injury and yeah ill be honest, before i got hurt i didn't care when supervisors worked because i wanted to get the job done. I've always had a good work ethic. I want to take care of the drivers, give them good loads so they can have a good day, but also give them good loads so the customers can get their packages on time. I even came in early to set my area up off the clock. Then my back injury, I learned the corruptness of UPS. They didn't care about me. They treated me unjustly and taught me that they don't care about ethics. The problem with your argument is that you stereotype that the union or union goon is this. I'd say theres 20% of the union is people of who you talk about. Whereas in management they're supervisors all are constantly trying to get a leg up or do what it takes to make sure the numbers are good. They don't care about the employees. Thats the problem tieguy, if UPS didn't screw me, I would be the same as before most likely. And also its state and federal law though that if you do work, you have to get paid for that work. All the stuff that you mention of people harassing by using the contract, they're just following the contract, YOUR BOSSES SIGNED THE THING, TELL YOUR BOSSES NOT TO SIGN IT NEXT TIME. If your bosses sign it just like Teamsters heads sign it, its an agreement thats how were gonna do things. It's a two way street though. When management doesn't stay on top of discipline and lets it go to hell thats why we have harassment grievances because you guys treat people differently. Theres number of guys who work hard as heck but they have attendance problems and in fact should be fired. But when the slower people have attendance problems, they do get fired. Thats a problem UPS doesn't treat their employees equally. For every action there is a reaction Tieguy, UPS is creating the actions, we are all just reacting to it. Its UPS's fault. You shouldn't bag all the union goons with poor work ethic. You don't know. Through peak in late October and up until the beginning of March I only had 4 misloads, I take pride in that. I didnt call in the whole timespan either. I stay late to watch supervisors work on my own time because its time to keep the company honest. Yes tieguy theyre teamsters who are dishonest too and they should be fired if caught in the act. But you need to understand that they're few union goons but more UPS poor business ethics. [/QUOTE]
