🚨 UPS Cutting 20,000 Jobs?!!!! Really… 🤷‍♀️

[Brownwind]

We got a good handful of guys who when asked if they'll take the day they will say "who's driving if I do". We got a good crew.
Either way, good chance I'll be looking for other employment by next peak.

Ride it out and don’t get bucked off before the bell. You got this.

How much seniority you got? I’m sure you’ll be fine. Have you said that don’t run out and buy $75,000 new truck.

Hired in the heart of covid.
Soon to be 5 years.
Driver 27 out of 31.
Driver sort n load, sounds like we will be losing Amazon within a year...
Not a lot of room to bump, only have like 3 part timers.
I'm gonna stick it out until they tell me not to come in anymore. But making smart financial decisions (hence all the extra OT I can scrounge).

Always be smart, but in the end, I think you’ll be fine.

Let’s goooo. I’m going to have some seniority after they get a lot of these 30 year drivers off the list.

In hindsight it's hard to believe why UPS would have agreed to creating 30K new Teamster jobs. After we were past Covid, it was known that volume was on the decline. The message was already "Better, not Bigger". Clearly those 30K jobs aren't happening and this announcement goes the other way.

How does a business even contractually promise significant growth? That doesn't even make sense. To me a union contract is about promises made to your current workers, not an obligation to hire a certain amount in the future. UPS has to maintain profitablity, what if something happened that destroyed volume like a massive recession, they'd still have to hire 30K?

WE DIDN'T LISTEN
