I can't even go to the dentist(etc.) because my benefits expired. But they do still call me a couple times per month,demanding my presence@the last min,which then messes up my edd benefits. I could go on and on but I just don't think it matters to the anyone enough to change things. What happened to customer service at Ups anyway? Is that the price of going corporate??

It sounds as though it may be time for you to move on. A job that only employs you several times a month is not a job. The economy is starting to turn around so job opportunities should become more abundant. UPS, at least for most part-timers, is just a job, not a career, so you need to do what is best for you.

As far as the customer service and corporate remarks, those are simply the result of the frustration that you feel toward your job and UPS.

Good luck in your job search.

13 years before I broke my neck on the clock, vertebrae, not spine, so I can walk. But UPS told my attorney "What is it going to take to get him to leave?" within reason of course. So I'm now a civilian. Take care of yourself, you only have one body! David
