I would be happy to follow ORION 100% if they would put it in writing that I wont face discipline for missed stops, missed pickups, late air or running out of fuel at 10:00 at night.
They wont do that of course, so since I am still responsible for all service failures that might occur I will also be responsible for deciding whether or not to follow ORION.

If we had lost the ability to turn ORION off last peak, then instead of 7500 missed stops on Christmas eve it would have been about 75,000.

Do you read the press releases? This saves us millions of miles a year. Lol.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Any managements biggest downfall is failing to see when something just doesn't work. Ups seems to have a lot of that.
I mean we have spent billions implementing a system that in turn is causing management to tell driver "use your best judgement" "make it work". These are things drivers have been doing on their own for over 100 years without billions wasted.

They know it doesn't work but since the culture of this company is based on fear and intimidation, the front line operation managers at the bottom of the food chain will remain silent.

Working terminations, thats a joke. That usually means they don't really want to fire the person, but want t scare the rest of the center.

Don't treat them like a joke. I've seen several people lose their jobs because they forgot to grieve a working termination.

I have to scratch my head on that one.... wondering how it could happen.
My supplement doesn't have anything like that.
It would be like not grieving a Article 10 letter.
(for a bad DR.... when the company tries to insinuate the driver is at fault)
There are Local's that automatically protest a discharge (with a grievance) on the members behalf.
But, I am guessing that doesn't happen in RTW states.

It does not matter if ORION 'works' according to hourlies. If it gives the employee less autonomy and management more control mechanisms via technology, it will be done.
It happens when the company is throwing a lot of Art 7's at a member for whatever reason. Typically you grieve them and eventually you go upstairs and settle it but if you don't grieve it within 7 days then it's game over, you're gone.
Ive seen It happen before. at the same time,people wont even vote on a contract.
Its too hard to put an X on a ballot and shove it in the mailbox.
A grievance form,is way too much work,I guess?!?

You have to admit,38% is a piss poor turn out.

It's embarrassing.
The company knows what the "historic" voting percentage of UPS members is.
They bring that to the table in negoiations.
Thanks TDU.... for being the first ones to publish that.

I know you are a hoffa fan.
And we dont agree on that!.....but!
He has done alot of damage.
We worked really hard to get everybody to vote.
This was the first contract,for many first time voters.
When he declared impasse,they said why should we even bother to vote?
Sad,sad day!
5 steps backward!
