[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 250658, member: 198"] So now you are trying to switch gears and rant about PAS/EDD? Well, first of all "most drivers" for me can only be the ones I've talked to and what the majority of them say about it totaly contradicts your comments. Yeah..there's no more sorting and EDD tells everyone where there stuff is "SUPPOSED" to be loaded in the truck but the time saved is whiped out by having to look for packages all day that aren't in the right sections or burried under bulk stops. PAS is bad enough that someone went as far as to make this..... [url]https://web.archive.org/web/20080216130203/http://www.denverbrown.com/PAS.html[/url] but anyway...I fail to see how your love for PAS/EDD supports your cynical and negative views about part-timer wages. The fact that RPS can't keep people with $9.50/hr only proves my point! It's just not worth it these days. Why can't you grasp that simple concept? And who said the pay is crap? The pay is decent. Better than most part-time jobs, that is changing though, and most part-timers chose UPS for that reason but the work performed and the fact that $8.50/hr isn't worth what it used to be is good reasons to raise the starting pay. Money is the reason people come to UPS. Sure, there are always a couple people here only for tuition reimbursment or "to get paid to work out" but even many of those fall by the way side. Other than that I can't think of any other reason why someone would subjugate theirselves to working at UPS? Not for the hell of it and definately not for the fun of it. [/QUOTE]
