[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 644207, member: 14596"] Seriously? Too unethical for UPS to have gotten away with? In some parts of the country, legally there is no choice but to pay the 250 initiation fee to work at UPS. But, this has nothing to do with UPS, not one dime, not one red cent, of that money goes to UPS. UPS would hugely prefer that you did NOT have to pay that money, as it is a dis-incentive for you to work for UPS during the time when UPS needs it the most. The money goes to the Teamsters, and if you are paying that money, the teamsters where you live have told UPS no, under no circumstances will we agree to an exception to the dues requirements in the bargaining agreement for seasonal helpers. And yes, many states do find this too unethical to get away with, and in those states the practice is illegal. Unfortunately for you, I do not believe California is one of those states. [/QUOTE]
