[QUOTE="Sammie, post: 263307, member: 8657"] Protrucker, For what it's worth, UPS is not a cake walk. Every job there, union or not, is very fast paced with minimal training. Swim or sink is a term you will often hear. Maybe if you take a quick glimpse at the comments here it may appear that we hate our wages, we hate our jobs, we hate the company. But keep in mind that this is a place to vent, which many of us don't even do with our spouses because they don't work here and wouldn't understand. And as far as the Teamster issues, it's all about providing a company with dependable workers who will put in an honest day's work for an honest day's pay. Those workers also deserve a piece of the pie when they work for a money maker like UPS. And that's where it gets tricky. Yes, this is a huge company with a lot of problems including a greed factor but for those who have planned ahead rather than whine, for those who take responsibility for their lives and their jobs, ours is a situation many people would give their eye teeth to be a part of. We work our hynies off but we're the best paid in the industry. [/QUOTE]
