[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 4334158, member: 58386"] Look, whether you drive a parcel delivery truck regardless of it's color one fact remains. Due to an increasingly hostile public the sheer physical beating the job inflicts and the general effects of ageing you've only got just so many years doing it until you simply can no longer perform the duties. Therefore it comes down to the same inescapable question......How long do you think that you can withstand the physical beating and what will become of you when you can no longer do so? Now if you can learn how to correctly pull the levers of the UPS system those questions will be answered. At Express there will be fewer and fewer people who will have that question answered and among the few who do the deal they will go away will not be so good and the new people coming in will go away with even less. You see what's going on here? Both U and X are seeking to divest itself of as much so called "legacy costs" a cute little term used disguise retirement pension and retirement costs as they can and being nonunion Fat Freddy has more numerous and favorable opportunities to do so At Ground outside of a very few contractors who offer a very modest employer funded benefit plans that pay little there's flat out nothing for them. If you can't keep up with the increasing workload you're not discharged or released .....you're simply disposed of. Of course there's no loyalty on the part of the employee. Why would you expect loyalty from the employee when there's none on the part of the employer? [/QUOTE]
