[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 329818, member: 198"] We don't have much dead weight in the driver ranks but there has always been plenty of them working inside. I've seen plenty of dead weight employees in the hubs and centers that either held on to their jobs or always came back after getting fired when in reality they should have been shown the door years before. All while good employees are getting wrote up. The high seniority loafers stick around because they know that all they have to do is not commit a cardinal sin and management can't touch them. The younger loafers always slip up early and usually make it easy for management to can them. That or they would just end up quiting eventually for other reasons. When I was a newbie working in the hub I never could understand how people could lay out of work so much (some laid out while at work LOL!) and not get fired. This was my first real union job minus working at Kroger for a year but at least there they could get rid of loafers. With that said I'm glad that we have the IBT. I couldn't imagine working at UPS without them. Like someone said....if you want an idea of what it would be like without them just look at how management treats their own. [/QUOTE]
