[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 4867303, member: 58386"] And what direction is it heading in? It would appear that it has done nothing in the way of reducing it's consumption of low wage labor at a time when the growth in the supply due to a number of reasons does not appear to be able to keep up. Talked to the outbound manager this evening. Told me that tensions are running high because they can't keep anybody and the few who still actually care are pushing back against having to do their own work and the work of 2 or 3 other guys because of call offs quitting outright and no takers of the job to begin with. And to top it off he's handed in his notice as well after 9 years because he sees no improvement in the situation both in the terminal and out on the road . Sure, the pressure might let up a little bit when people finally have to go back to work but the message is still loud and clear. Ground has to find a way to dramatically reduce amount of hand labor and nonmechanized movement of all that material. [/QUOTE]
