[QUOTE="helenofcalifornia, post: 416255, member: 5170"] Hef, Upstate, Cove, I think we can all agree that UPS is doing things that they never have before. Mandatory layoffs, without giving other drivers the option of going home, is one of them. May be a good business move in that they save on the monthly health benefits of those that choose to not work two part time shifts. And unemployment benefits? How is $280 a week going pay bills when you are used to taking home at least 2-3 times that a week?? The economy is still tanking, it's not getting better, it's getting worse. I am still seeing the "For Sale" signs popping up all over my neigborhood. For the most part, I am an upbeat, glass half full type of a person. I just think we should not have our head in a hole ignoring what is going around us. Internet sales in January are not going to save us from layoffs. Anybody from feeders have post Christmas volume projections or layoff plans that they have heard of? I sincerely hope that my doom and gloom is all for naught. [/QUOTE]
