Has any UPS employee been infected by Covid-19?

It’s interesting how one of the guys who takes the most dead days in our building suddenly developed a cough at work and had to be sent home.
Hasn’t been back yet, I’m praying for his recovery.

Really depends on his seniority compared to yours......

Is coughing up phlegm part of it?

Inside employees only and must be paid top scale. 38.48.

They asked insiders but they are actually only using surplus drivers as helpers. Cheaper to pay low seniority driver than top rate for insider.

All our drivers are on the road here.

When I had it, yeah, but only after pneumonia started clearing up. Turned to bronchitis

Okay, I know Tom Hanks and his wife have it. I couldn't give a damn.
But....what about our fellow co-workers? Have any of our drivers, loaders, supervisors, etc. been hit with the virus?

10 people in Atlanta smart hub has it

We have a package driver in quarantine in Plainfield. I heard there was a feeder but a direct answer cannot be had. Inside the hub in PE they have a sup that is in quarantine to their wife. Hub is only two years old and looks like it has been running for 30 years. Bathrooms are disgusting, security check is a germ warfare battleground. They are not doing a DAMN thing in regards to proactive or reactive for that matter.

You don’t think 24 hrs is a long time?

Glad I don't have any stainless steel inside my package car...

Or any of those plastic totes to deliver...

On a positive note I can guarantee you nobody will get a three day ride.

I would love to know what the corporate meeting was about on this subject. No PCM's no interaction with management.

and for some stupid reason a company feels they are more important than the people that actually deliver the packages
Unbelievable

AGREE , you guys keep us alive until the shutdown. But, ups doesn’t care about their people in any department.

Well how long were they working, infecting all those packages for other coworkers to handle them for final delivery?

It’s plenty of time for it to spread to drivers and customers.

Yeah, but those small plastic bags???

Summers almost here and it’ll disappear, just like the regular flu
