Rep Power: 0 | lets stop backing down! im at ups almost 20 years, and it is sad. I never seen people so afaid! we are all grown ups stong men and women. lets start having pride in ourselves. Do not take harassment from anybody,dont stand for disrespect. when i first started the older drivers took me under their wing. Now i dont know if have the people with over 20 years even know drivers names. The militancy is gone from most drivers. lets stop bitching and do the job exactly the way they want. It is hard to get used to doing everything by the book,but we have to, we need to realize that we have say 80 drivers for 3 sups and a manager. burry the with their own rules. You know ive noticed that management sticks together no matter what. no more me,me,me. |

I banged heads with management many times and others were like sheep led to slaughter. Well hopefully you will be retiring in a few years and others in future years will maybe someday look at your post and agree like I do.. |

Sounds to me like you have a personal vendetta and are looking to others for validation. But, to each his own. Allowing others to make you miserable is a choice you make. Control what you can control.

That's what I want some bros who's voice means absolutely nothing anywhere anytime... No one intimidates me. You guys act like there is a war. This is your job if it's so bad go work somewhere else. Talk is cheap the truth is you need UPS more than they need you. "respond a little more proactive"? What does that even mean. What do I need to be pro-active about? Just don't respond you don't have the mental compacity, you don't want to strain yourself.

No one intimidates me, except raceanoncr and then I just threaten him behind the curtain draped over my computer. You guys act like there is a war. This is your job if it's so bad go work somewhere else like I was forced to when I got fired from UPS. Talk is cheap the truth is I need UPS more than they need me. "respond a little more proactive"? What does that even mean. (I think there's supposed to be a question mark here but going through eighth grade 4 times didn't teach me that). What do I need to be pro-active about? Well, I just got new wheels on my house, so there! Just don't respond you don't have the mental compacity, you don't want to strain yourself. |

This is one I feel strongly about!!!...And I completely agree with Bubblehead - MORE COWBELL is in fact the right answer to this dilemna...It can absolutely solve most of the world's problems and achieve peace at UPS and around the globe. I call for a revolution...The militancy is gone from most citizens. lets stop bitching and do the American dream exactly the way they want. It is hard to get used to doing everything by the book, but we have to, we need to realize that we have say 800,000 Americans for 3 Congressmen and Senators. You know ive noticed that politicians stick together no matter what. no more me,me,me.  COWBELL NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
