[QUOTE="Dracula, post: 2387234, member: 42691"] So how does he cover work on Monday after working Sunday, AND get his 10 hours off? There is no way around that...it's federal law. Not to rain on your parade, but I work in a large hub (400 feeder drivers) and UPS is doing everything they can to shutter as many of the smaller, satellite centers as they can. And we are absorbing many of those jobs. And the small buildings they aren't killing, they are eliminating jobs from those centers. I'm not trying to bum you out, I'm just telling you what is happening. Our hub is huge, and they have plans to expand. And this is happening in a lot of places. In the big picture, I think it is going to hurt us bad, if the subcontracting they are being allowed to do by our union continues; and maybe it's just me, but it seems like they are working small to big. At the end, they would love nothing more than to have fewer, huge hubs, with subcontractors working hub to hub, IMO. Maybe that's a dark outlook, and maybe I've gone off-topic (again), but judging from what currently they're doing, and what our toothless International is allowing, it seems like a logical end game from a shareholder POV. I hope I'm wrong. [/QUOTE]
