[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1001822, member: 14668"] The package cars were the way that they were when I got hired, so when I chose to accept employment at UPS I went in to it knowing that a consequence of that choice was that I would wind up driving an unsafe vehicle. Its the hypocricy I have a problem with. UPS has made it abundantly clear by its [U][I][B]actions [/B][/I][/U]in regards to equipment, vehicles and time allowances that it has absolutely [U][I][B]no[/B][/I][/U] concern whatsoever for the safety and health of its employees. I can accept that, but [I]not[/I] when I am then constantly subjected to the asinine dog-and-pony show that is the typical "Safety Committee". Actions speak louder than words, so when it comes to safety UPS needs to just shut the fu&k up. The driver in this accident was operating a vehicle from which even the most basic safety and ergonomic features had [I]intentionally been deleted[/I] in order to save the company an insignifcant amount of money at time of purchase. What this driver [I]needed...[/I] was a 3 point seat belt and a high-backed lumbar support seat. What he [I]got[/I]....was a bunch of acronyms, commentaries, doughnuts, and other "Safety Committee" drivel. [/QUOTE]
