[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 703048, member: 1944"] You should never keep your mouth shut. You respectfully had a thought and expressed it. I feel angry when the bosses jump on guys older, it isnt right. But they have been around long enough to know they will be there to the end of their career, because they do the job. I had a young loader at Christmas time actually spout off and say to me as he finished stuffing my truck..."I dont mind women working here if everybody doesnt have to carry them" I was speechless, but I just laughed as the lions in the den, beat the young cub. I dont think anyone should carry anyone as we all got hired and if we didnt carry our weight we were gone. Male or female. I know other places I worked at, I worked with slouches. It made me work harder, but it made me better. As for UPS, I have never worked with a slouch. The part time positions are not easy, I worked them for 8 yrs. At least as a driver you get to take breaks when you need them. Not when a buzzer goes off, it is very intense. I used to go home and take a nap, I was so whipped. I can see how the poster hit a raw nerve. [/QUOTE]
