dont talk about other people behind their backs

[Re-Raise]

I jumped with this older guy one time....he's gotta be at least 48. All gray. Small skinny fella to the point he looks sort of like a cartoon character in the baggy browns.


MF was running EVERYWHERE! EVERY STOP!


I didn't know that wasn't normally lol.

I am 48 and you would have been the only one doing any running. When you get really old you don't end sentences with lol

there are no secrets at ups.

just don't understand people who do this. it always gets back to the person being talked about.

I always do this in hopes it does get back to them. We like ripping on each other. If there really is a problem I usually will address it to someones face, but I'll never talk about them seriously. Usually I'll say "so and so went out with his boyfriend last night and went to a miley cyrus concert. they got wasted off of zimas."

Thanks for this thread. It reminds me that on Monday I had better call the building's busy body to tell him why I am out on disability. That will make sure the whole building has the straight story.

Just tell a feeder driver---the FNN will take it from there.

Never bothered me. I've heard rumors that I've banged all the females drivers in our centers. And even a previous on-car sup of mine. If that's what they want to think, then so be it. Let 'em talk.

 

[3 done 3 to go]

Ive heard there aren't any female drivers. And the on -car was really a dude

Jealous much?

 

[3 done 3 to go]

Just gossip that passed thru. Made full circle.

Happens in my center all the time.. Unfortunately its not just the center. Pretty sure gossip happens everywhere. Its a time killer.

That's why I talk about people right to their face. The responses have been surprisingly positive.

Everyone wants to know every detail about you. How many hours you work, your wage, what time you start work, your sex life, your personal life, etc.

It's annoying especially if you're a keep to yourself type of person like me.

 

[joeboodog]

I have a place where I hang out waitingto start in the morning. It's quiet and I can focus on planning my day. I can drink my coffee in peace and if anyone wants to talk to me the know where to find me. After thirty years, I have just about heard all complaints and gossip I can stand. All I worry about is my route and other drivers that can directly affect my day. Every thing else is just a distraction or none of my business.

It's like a sewing circle and it always will.

I agree, which is why I always give bull answers to those questions.

You are in a truck by yourself for 11 hours.

Why worry what morons think of you that you see for 10 minutes a day.

 

[browntroll]

i dont gossip about other ppl behind their backs, i do it to their face its more fun that way. the things i heard at ups made me grow
thicker skin. i always walk in and out of the hub assuming everyone hates me, the only ppl i dont get any attitude from are the security guards.
