I would like to first say thank you for all the hard work you did this past PEAK season, but now it is Cut Back time! I feel more safe in the woods during deer season than I do as a Part Time Supervisor after a PEAK Season. Oh yes, UPS wants your mind, body, and soul during PEAK, but after that you are nothing more than a highlighted name on an email. Which leads me to my question: Are UPS Part Time Supervisors paid fairly compared to the employees they manage? My fulltime and part time union and nonunion employees make more money than I do. As an added insult, I have more years of service at UPS than many of them. Their raises are higher than the Part Time Sups ever get or hope to receive.
I can say with a certainty of confidence that every one of us became Part Time Supervisors because we want to be leaders in this great company. As that statement came rolling off my fingers onto the keyboard,and for just a brief moment in time, I remembered why I signed my name to that sheet of paper......because in that moment I wanted nothing more than to be a leader at UPS and yes, I thought I would be rewarded for that. Unfortunately, years later I find myself like many other Part Time Sups- disheartened with the company and looking at the want ads a little more often. This is my gripe; should we, at the bear minimum, be paid as well as the Non-union and Union employees we manage? As our health care premiums go up between 7 an 13 percent each year, our health care benefits get inferior each year and now we pay he first $2300 out of pocket expense. Before you see a doctor, make sure you shop around and get some quotes. Hell, it's only your life... Everything in our lives is going up, the cost of milk, bread,gas, etc. Everything, that is, except our PAY CHECKS!
Part Time Sups, does anyone have the Union Hall phone number........??
