[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 419853, member: 12570"] Yes, along with global warming, apartheid, and the advent of our new socialist government 11/04/08. BBAG, you need to relax. You are putting way too much pressure on yourself. First of all, and perhaps most importantly, TAKE YOUR LUNCH AND BREAKS. Why would you want to give them an hour or whatever it is you guys get for lunch and break? If you have to take them at the end of the day, so be it, but take them. Get back to the bldg before your cutoff time and go to the break room and sit. Yes, it sucks, but giving them 5 hours a week also sucks and you may find that they [U]may[/U] reduce your dispatch accordingly. Second, why in the hell are you still delivering Saturday air if you are pulling a route every day? Are you delivering NDA and then some bulk stops or are you pulling an actual delivery route? Third, I agree, you do need to go see a lawyer as it appears that you are getting hosed on child support. In New York it is 17% for the first child and 8% for each child thereafter up to a max of 33%. I have no idea what child support is in Mass but I don't think it is such that you would net $40 after working 5 full days and then 1/2 day or so on Saturday. I am not going to bust on you as I was always taught not to kick someone when he is down. I know that you are not whining. This has turned out to be something so far removed from what you expected and you are understandably upset. Don't go back to the local sort. Tough it out, take your lunch/breaks, let the screaming of your on-car go in one ear and out the other, and you will soon find that you will be just fine. Keep us updated and I wish you nothing but the best. Dave. [/QUOTE]
