[QUOTE="KTB, post: 252598, member: 11975"] You have obviously never worked part time or you wouldn't say that. Part time UPS is [I]manual[/I] [I]labor[/I]. It isn't some weekend job ripping tickets at a movie theater it's 4 hours Monday through Friday of hard work. The summer heat in a trailer that has been sitting in the yard is like an oven. Christmas is something so bad I've blocked it from my memory. Go bail hay or work as a roofer for 4 hours and then do entry level hub work for the same amount of time (I've done all of the above). Hub work is harder. Full timers should make more than part timers. I don't think anyone (even the part timers) argue that point. However asking people to do back breaking work [I]without benefits[/I] (we are talking about this contract not the way it used to be) for $1.25 more than the 16 year old kid ripping movie tickets is ridiculous.
