[QUOTE="Socrates, post: 3804113, member: 36964"] 1) I have never asked for help delivering a package. I once had a 140lb furniture to a 4th floor apartment. Deep breath, on the shoulder, walk it up the stairs. Wouldn't fit on a hand-cart if I wanted to. 2) Oh hunnie, you wouldn't kick my ass. I would crush your hand if you even waved your finger in my face. (Insert Navy Seal copypasta here). People like you are the worst because you huff and puff but at the end of the day, you wouldn't bust a grape in a food fight - not on UPS property, not off property either. All bluff and no stuff. 3) You are not the arbiter of what is and isn't a "man" - being that you are a weasel and a politician. My center has lots of drivers like you, mostly in their late 20s/early 30s. You piss and moan and berate Management/Dispatch until you have a gravy route and people like me - who just show up and do the job, never file grievances, never call in sick, don't complain about add/cuts on other loops, nothing - we get YOUR bull:censored: piled on us over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again until we finally reach our breaking point and we are FORCED to put our feet down and demand changes. Some of us do this by talking directly to management; some of us talk through an intermediary (shop steward); still others of us go through the grievance procedure. You are a turncoat and not a real Teamster if you would sit there with that stupid, smug look on your face, and insult YOUR co-workers - who are, possibly, not the confrontational type yet have a manipulative, weasel, gaslighting building manager that only manipulative, weasel, gaslighting employees (COUGH COUGH) are very effective at dealing with. If the Teamsters/UPS didn't want the grievance procedure to be available to us, then it would not be in the contract. It is. So employees will continue to use it, despite backstabbing traitors like you insulting and ridiculing them for it. You need to go back through and read the contract - specifically, the part about where drivers are to have their capabilities and performance judged INDIVIDUALLY, not on a collective basis, and WITH REGARD TO their current physical condition and limitations. It does not matter if 48/50 drivers can deliver 100lb packages up 3 flights of stairs without help. If 2/50 cannot, then those 2 out of 50 need to receive help to do so. Period. Not every driver is a 26-year-old fat, greasy powerlifter with no regard for their well-being 20 or 30 or even 5 years from now. Don't like it? Then YOU are the one who needs to switch jobs. You already have one foot out the door with your bootlicking, company-friendly sentiments and browbeating your so-called Brothers and Sisters. [/QUOTE]
