    Grievance against the Union?

    So all the seasonal workers get these huge weekly bonuses, must be there every day and on time, so at the end of peak they are looking at an extra $950 or so. Sups say that’s not us it’s the union! My mind I’d boggled! Another one, well they loose seniority and they’re not guaranteed a job, bla...

    At What Point....?

    ....does UPS say "uncle"? When will this company tell the truth; that we can't maintain an infrastructure, fleet, and the staffing necessary to accommodate the ever increasing influx of volume for essentially 2 months of the year? How much longer will the Union allow a bunch of pencil neck...

    I Was talking to a couple of FedEx drivers today..

    ran into a couple of FedEx drivers in the grocery store a few hours ago. I asked them how they were doing delivery wise, the usual small talk. Those guys said they were backed up as well. They said they are not sure that they will be able to dig out of it themselves. The interesting tidbit is...

    Here we go again. Forced Six Punches and working as helper after 60Hrs.

    It's that time of year again when the Union disappears and management gets to run wild. Those who have Saturday ground operations will know what I am talking about. I don't need any snarky remarks, save them please. I have a few simple questions. 1) Where in the contract does it state that we...

    Benefits of a Part-Time Supervisor / Landing a Full-Time Position

    Hi, I started as a part-time supervisor back in May. I have a degree but I haven't been able to find a decent position. I was wondering what are the raises for part-time sup's? Are there any bonuses? You can obviously tell that my compensation at this position is very low. With a degree, can I...
