[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 447809, member: 13254"] All of this reminds me of the strike in '97. Right after the strike was over and we went back to work, the company canceled the "local sort" and said it was because of the volume lost from the strike.BS,pure BS. The fact is they were planning on shutting down that sort months before the strike ever happened, the plans were formulated and put on hold till after the strike so they could blame it on the union workers. The point is, UPS is always looking for ways to cut back on expenses, but want something else beside corporate greed to lay the blame on. Sound familiar? For clarification: By local sort I mean the trucks that came in every night from other centers ranging from 100-150 miles away with packages for our area and picking up packages that went to their centers. This bypassed the need to send them to our main outgoing hubs. I sure hope this explanation makes sense. [/QUOTE]
