[QUOTE="teamsterdan, post: 104249, member: 5350"] since you asked....addison IL, not where I'm @ but we get loads from there....yesterday early morning, on a nite sort/load.... a 40 y/o male had a heart attack, was revived briefly then, died on site...... I've been looking for info on - line since yesterday, I can't find JACK.... that's what I'm pissed off abt. (no apology/info from either the union or ups)....... the info I have is from multiple feeder dr's, that and the fact that our addison load was late and instead of break, had a safety pcm, (worksheets) no mention of the accident/incident...... just a few "make sure you drink water".......It bothers the hell outta me because it demonstrates how they really view us... "expendable"....before anyone jumps on me for saying that......I do believe/know for a fact that 99.9% of the jobs @ ups are physically demanding and also believe that we as employees have an obligation to either be "fit enough" to do the work or not be and suck it up, that being said DEATH is unacceptable regardless and to not acknowledge the very existence of the event makes a deafening statement........RIP unknown soldier of the brown army.....
