[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 1373298, member: 2189"] At our location, a retired supervisor was subcontracted to come back and train new drivers. This sup the last several peak seasons has come back as subcontractor to help management during peak from October thru February. This year he came back in late June. He wasn't sure he wanted to do it so he laid down what he thought might be "deal breaker" demands and to his shock, UPS met every demand without batting an eye. Even heard with my own ears a discussion of subcontracting retired drivers to help out during peak. It was a discussion, not actual fact, just surprised such option was having to even be considered. Seems to me not a bad idea but I also understand the larger ramifications and hurdles, so did they. Will be interesting to see where this goes if it even goes anywhere. Subcontracting a retired management person is one thing but a retired hourly seems a whole other realm. [/QUOTE]
