Im a university student working at UPS as a loader and I was hired in April.
In December, near the end of peak, the manager came around to every person in the loading area including me, and told us that if you stay at UPS for a year you get $1000.
Now, he doesn't work here anymore and when I asked a manager about the whole thing, he told me that it is only for people who start after January 1st, 2013. Does this make sense to any of you? He came around telling people in December about this reward for staying 1 year, and if its for people who start in January 2013, nobody that he told this about was even eligible for the reward! I find it pathetic that they go to these tactics to mislead people. Can I go to the union about this even though there is no paperwork?
