[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 54386"] Sawman, As a clerk I don't have to take the DOT physicals anymore and wasn't aware of them being more critical as I haven't had any drivers complain about it to me (in my steward capacity). I have wondered how UPS was going to deal with 60+ year old drivers when the 40 year olds are dropping like flies to accumulative back, knee, hip, shoulder, wrist, ankle injuries. The workforce is going to slow down like a rusty worn out machine over the next decade as it stands now in my opinion. I am hoping UPS shoots for financial incentives such as extra lump sum retirement bonuses to get rid of us old guys rather than they decide to just shoot (us). Bob, your name (if real) doesn't ring any bells. The few at work that I know read the brown cafe all know my moniker. Yeah, UPS's wonderful decision regarding the medical was the killer for me. I'd be gone now also if they'd put their money where their mouth has always been about being so concerned about "their people". That actually makes the second likeliest place they could shoot for regarding incentives to get rid of the old workers. [/QUOTE]
