[QUOTE="hoser, post: 137628, member: 6357"] depends on the attitude that you have. UPS is definately a flawed company, but a lot of people don't realize how good they have it, taking into account the wage they earn and that there are many worse companies than UPS. you do earn ot and i've never been short changed on my OT or hours ever, if i am, that's what the teamsters are for. with respect to people retiring in bad shape, you can't age, have a physically demanding job, and not take care of yourself, then blame UPS for all of it. you have to be more responsible than that. i know UPSers in their 50s whom eat right, go to the gym, lift properly, and go at a reasonable pace, and they're sitting pretty. if you're a coal-miner, you can blame the conditions for your deteriorated health, but as a UPSer, your health and wellbeing at middle age is completely in YOUR hands. And I've never seen sexism in my workplace. The fact that fewer women are drawn into this kind of work is not a sexist construct, it's reflective of the society we're in. [/QUOTE]
