[QUOTE="kingOFchester, post: 939317, member: 11246"] Starting to sound like my ex wife. I say up, you say down. I say black, you say white. I got it. First off, I worked the pre-load. 2nd off, in my building...my center the preload is not held to the same standards as drivers. There is one preloader that has been working for over a year now. He is good for atleast 5 missloads per truck a DAY. 3rd off, until you drive you have no business commenting on what skills are needed. Here you say "Meanwhile, if UPS fired a part-timer barely grossing $10,000/year for every error, what are they going to replace them with? Another part-timer making similar errors. If UPS wants to attract higher-quality labor it can hold accountable, then it has to ante up" Thats what I said ...pay them more......but hold them more accountable. You are so set on being argumentive, that you don't see that you just stated the same thing I did. A good portion of the loaders I know are getting paid what they are worth. When I have to deliver 3 miss loads to 3 different area's and that takes me an extra 45 minutes to an hour do to driving all over Gods creation that is costing the company a lot of money at 45+ an hour not including fuel and other expenses. Again, according to your statement you agree with me. Pay more and get better workers. In my building, if you got a pulse you got a job. If you want to drive, you need a hell of a lot more then a pulse. If and when you drive, you can comment on what it takes. Until then, perhaps it is reasonable you speak of which you know. [/QUOTE]
