[QUOTE="HEFFERNAN, post: 1412551, member: 11315"] As much as some of you would like to lay blame on the employee/management system here, UPS is not to blame. As a driver, it takes a lot to get fired. Stupidity, Ignorance, or a cardinal sin you most times get a second chance. If you lose at a panel hearing, it was probably a no-brainer. This isn't the only business that unstable people lose their heads when they get fired. It happened in my state 4 years ago at HDI when a fired employee went through the building and gunned down 8 people. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hartford_Distributors_shooting[/url] The problem here as a long time UPS driver is if you do get forced out, you think you can never recreate that industry-leading pay and benefits. The truth is that the people that I've met after they left are the happiest people and found great job opportunities to use their skills. My prayers to the 3 families for their loss. [/QUOTE]
