[QUOTE="Laguna Preload, post: 4210266, member: 74107"] Not sure this post is even worthy of a reply but here it goes. 1. If the job really meant that much to you you should have read your contract and talked with your steward to see what it would take to get and keep the job. 2. I know for a fact that So Cal has a 3 month probation period. The fact that you were miss loading during the probation period tells them that you were going to be doing it after you were unionized. If it was that bad during the summer you would have been a nightmare to management during peak. 3. Scan every package, and write your hin numbers. It takes a few weeks to get it down but the fact is if you scan every package and wear your scanner belt. The alarm goes off when you bring the package into the wrong car. This saved my but so many times. I had 0 miss loads during my probation period. Even after that I only had them if someone else loaded part of my car in which case there was no way it was being pinned on me. 4. You might be able to get back in as a seasonal but I doubt it. They keep a record that tells them if you are able to be rehired or not. Besides I’m not sure you want to unless you are willing to work like a dog and get the job done and get it done correctly. You have to treat Preload like a trip to the gym. Take some pride in your work and improve. Hope you find another job soon Best of luck and if you ever get to work at UPS again I hope you give it all you got [/QUOTE]
