[QUOTE="ups_vette, post: 461989, member: 2125"] I'm surprised, I would have thought that someone like you, with a college degree, would know the the United States work under the capitolistic (sp) system of finance, rather that a socialistic or communistic system which , from your responce, you seem to favor. Are you a member of the Workers Party? Without stockholders companies would not be in business, unless you want the goverment to own every business (Cuba) Like most things you are wrong about, I do not support what you refer to as "runners who burn thru their lunch" I support employees who follow the methods, including taking all personal time AGREED to in the contract and use the methods they are taught. When you say "cutting cornors" to get the "numbers" you are saying make up your own methods to do the job, and that's when the employee puts him/her self in danger of being injured or not meeting expectations I have nothing but respect for the vast majority of UPS workers, both hourly and management. It's the few, both hourly and management, who are just bad employees who try to get away with as much as they can and feel they are better than the other employees. I was driver for 6 1/2 years, so I know what can and can't be done as a driver. I was an or car supe and Center Manager for 7 years, so I know that part of the business also. I worked in I.E. 18 years as Hub and Feeder section manager and Package section manager During my time in I.E. I worked in Hong Kong and Singapore for a year when UPS expanded in Asia. I also worked in France for 2 1/2 years when we expanded in Europe. So I have a lot of experience with UPS and a lot of respect for most of it's employees all over the world. Please explain how expecting an employee to follow instructions and use the methods they have been taught is abusing the employee? [/QUOTE]
