[QUOTE="HEFFERNAN, post: 1159950, member: 11315"] This post has bothered me all day so I have some criticisms 1) When a Part Timer profiles that a Full Time package driver's work is menial, I will take offense. We don't exactly deliver pizzas brother. Since the arrival of PAS/EDD, GPS, and Telematics, I can honestly say that not one driver would consider that 10 hour shift "MENIAL". Before the digital depositories and public traded UPS stock, there were plenty of easy days and getting out early for drivers. Those days have gone the way of beepers, 1800 Collect commercials, and a MTV channel that still showed music videos. 2) Your mind has been poisoned by all the contract BS on this website. Full time UPSERS didn't subsidize part timers for a penny !!!! [U]All full timers and part timers[/U] GOT THE SAME RAISE, ON THE SAME DAY, FOR THE SAME AMOUNT OF YEARS. Current full timers didn't get more than every one else. PERIOD Progression grew by a year but now no more outside hires, just more fellow Teamsters delivering which is a good thing 3) When you leave high school and walk into the real world, you have 3 choices A) go to school 4 years plus with student loans to get a degree then try to find a high paying job B) find a trade (electrician, carpenter, UPS), join the Union and get hands-on experience and a career or C) Join the School of Hard Knocks and hope to make it My benefit package is fantastic but I know a lot of tradesman that make pretty close to my Top Rate. Nothing baffling about it !!! [/QUOTE]
