[QUOTE="outta hours, post: 871544, member: 4568"] I meant no disrespect or meanness to you or your personal situation. But you touched on the reason that "deals" are bad. Once you or anyone else starts making them, where do you draw the line? That's exactly why they hurt everyone, even if they are not involved directly at the time. It becomes a free for all and chaos ensues. The "original deal" with the mall route should not have been allowed either. This is a clear cut issue, that needs no interpretation. Bid drivers reamin on bid routes until they are bumped or bid off of them. End of story. You say you will run your bid route if you "MUST". Well you "MUST" because contractually you are obligated to do so. If you cave on this how can management or your fellow drivers, respect you? How could you respect yourself? Doing the right thing is often painful, inconvenient, and difficult. In life and also at UPS. Especially when others around you seem to be getting away with doing the wrong thing and benefiting from it. It happens to me too, I get that. But I also know where I stand and that no one will ever question my motives, or integrity. Lots of my fellow stewards make "deals" that they benefit from. That "me " first attitude is a huge part of the problem we face daily as employees and society in general. I wish you luck in your situation. This is only my opinion/view on the topic. If you ask 100 people, you will get many different responses. If I made you think just a bit about the "whole" situation then that's great. We are so caught up in the moment, we lose sight of the dominoes down the line that will also fall....... Take care [/QUOTE]
