[QUOTE="Local804guy4life, post: 779278, member: 31217"] It's sad but true. From a union perspective I see how the full time management team is treated in my building and it's scary. I point to the stressed out zombies AKA fulltimers everytime a member asks me if they should go into management. I simply ask is that the life you want? And their decision is easy. In my building the Nassau hub management people are quitting and going out on stress leave left and right so they are begging people to go into management. These guys get verbally abused and embarrassed by there superiors all day long. They are forced to work like 14 hours a day with no overtime pay. It's no way to live. They aren't even allowed to call in an injury if they get injured I heard. I don't even know how ups legally gets away with it. I try to encourage all my members to take note of how miserable and stressed the management team in my building is before crossing the line. It's refreshing to see an actual management person make such a statement. Maybe you can save some of the people who are on the verge of being tricked into going into management. I'm not anti management. I don't think I'm better then you because I'm in the union. I'm anti ups management because I've seen first hand how they destroyed the lives of some great employees and feel nobody should be subjected to that kind of abuse. Even though I'm a union employee I've had some good bosses. And to see them stressed out and miserable day in and day out for things they can't even control made me have some compassion for them. For all you people thinking about making the move into management ask me about our management people. I would be glad to tell you about the medications they are on, the doctors visits, the stress, the working hours, the abuse, etc. Save yourself. Stay in the union. [/QUOTE]
