[QUOTE="island1fox, post: 163534, member: 4816"] :thumbup1: It would be great if both the company and union worked together in negotiations to not only insure a growing , strong company but also increase real union full time jobs: Consider these points of reality : 1. Fed x is non union and appears will stay that way for some time. Fed x ground is delivering residential at a much lower cost to ups drivers on overtime. 2. UPS drivers are complaining about too much overtime. 3. union wants more full time jobs. 4. Ups needs to have consistent workforce on midnight shifts 5. UPS drivers always want earlier start times. 6. Ups wants most of the air to be delivered by the regular route drivers to eliminate miles and extra cars on the road. 7. Ups drivers cannot start early in the morning and do late pickups and resi's ---causes long hours and grievances. 8. Union and Company should add thousands of combo jobs to deliver residential (GROUND) at a combo rate that competes ith fed x ground --start regular route drivers earlier ----eliminate unwanted overtime----combo drivers unload regular drivers car on return to bldg----load resi's --deliver and p/u late air ----return --have meal period ---work rest of shift on midnight hub. This is what negotiations should do ---both give a little so that all can benefit. Thousands of real combo jobs ---making ups competitive against non union agression---relief of unwanted overtime, early start --early finish ---less send agains customers are home in evening ---p/us can be done later ------pension plan is helped by creating much more union positions --(volume ups can price off fedx ground by delivering at much lower rate than o/t. Sounds like it makes too much sense ?? [/QUOTE]
