But Benefits Are Great!
Just Words On A Screen
It's official. The world has gone mad.
Danny when i say the company i am talking about ups. I understand that if it were the vendor we wouldnt have much of a beef. I have not spent 1 dime in these machines since the change. Imagine paying buck for a cup of coffee that you paid 35 cents for.705
you kept mentioning that the company set the prices. which one, ups or the vending company?
if it was ups that set the pricing, then yes you have a legit grievance. if it the vending company, then vote with your feet and dont buy their stuff.
so please clarify which company you are talking about.
for those of you that dont know, in many buildings if not all, ups gets a kickback from the vending companies that set their machines in place. so if the items have doubled, and if ups is price gouging, then we have the "company store" type issue.

Are you kidding? Next someone will file a grievance on the toilet not flushing fast enough
I dont understand how some people say its a waste of resources! the union agents are salary and get paid to represent the contract. Even if the union loses what has been lost?
If an agent draws a salary he/se gets paid to represent the members grievances, no grievance they still get paid, even though there will never be a shortage of grievances here.705redI dont understand how some people say its a waste of resources! the union agents are salary and get paid to represent the contract.

Only more of our union dues getting wasted on crap. Wish we could get back all the union waste. Not counting all the lobbying with the government. Our dues would be no where close to what they are now.
Why not just boycott the machines and chip in with the other workers and bring in a cooler full of gatorade/water and snacks? You could buy a ton more fluids and healthier snacks this way. Talk to your wellness coordinator and he/she can arrange it for you.
Actually im sitting here filing 47 grievances for drivers that were in progression as of 8/1 that are not being paid the new progression pay.The center must be running smooth. Nothing else to grieve?
I am a mid-century fossil, so maybe my point does not apply.
I brown bag it everyday. Breakfast sandwich and lunch , and I have done this all my working life, at many different jobs.
I buy gatorade powder and make my own. Pennies for a quart.
Jeez, you do not walk into a desert without a full canteen.

I did it when I worked in the coal mine, when I was a net maker, when I was a structural fitter, when I was a student.Your also a satelite route and probably have not been into your building in quite sometime.
I keep an igloo cooler thats big enough to hold 3 sases of cans in it, and i pick up what i need on route and store it in my truck, but once again this isnt about me.
