I’m a 19 year plus PT sorter making $26 an hour. Biggest difference now compared to when I started is that nobody gets trained anymore they just get tossed into the fire and have no clue what to do which brings everything crumbling down. I’d say 1 out of 10 new PT package handlers have a decent work ethic at first and that usually goes away within a few weeks after management abuses them while the crappy workers get to put their feet up. I tell every new worker to quit ASAP so whenever they start complaining about all the nonsense I ask “what did I tell you on your first day??”
The union too.. why keep them pat 5 years and be vested let them pay us dues for 50 months and send them away. Fight for better contract not just for you
