[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 5528779, member: 49065"] The simple fact is most of our jobs at UPS were designed for physical and mental attrition, what are the percentages for a new start to make it till retirement? Most do not even last a month let alone the 5 years to become vested in a pension that pays peanuts till one hits the magic number: 30 years and age 55. Just wait till ones retires and see what kind of work environment we where in. (Boiled 🐸) .. just look at our Union Members who have worked past 30..they are like zombies..capable of doing their assigned tasks but just waiting for someone or something to pull the plug.. There is no loyalty or respect from both sides. This was not the case before we all became a human resource. As long as our Union just does the bare minimum and fights for your job which no one wants anyway but fails to address the root causes, we are just watching a dog and pony show every 5 years…Different names but the same results. Our management folk will continue to lose any chance of advancement, redundant positions are being eliminated… their pensions frozen… health benefits cut to the bone…They are paying the cost of their previous generation who were able to become millionaires at the operational levels. Simply not a good bargaining chip when you ask for more concessions from the Union. [/QUOTE]
