Retention Bonus for Holidays?

[BrownZen]

I heard Louisville package handlers are getting a $1700 retention bonus for simply not quitting during the holiday rush. Can anyone confirm getting this bonus? Any thoughts on how to spread this to other hubs?

For not quitting? Wow easiest money to ever make.

if housing prices were not skyrocketing in double-time to my wage increases I would not believe it either.

Many hubs are doing the same. Have to show up every day. Pretty nice holiday bonus, I would say.

We used to give our new hires $100 extra a week if they showed up on time, senior employees got squat.

Senior PT employees make $37/hr.

You would need over 30 years in to make that an hour as a part timer. I said senior, not geriatric.

$1,700 to get up every morning at 2am? What’s the hourly wage? $22? Anything less is poverty pay.

$15/hour here for a PT job. Stay longer and get FT benefits. Right now, that is a better deal than FE.

Yawn. Getting up at 2am daily is peanuts pay. If it’s such a great job, why can’t UPS keep anyone?

You started at 15? My hub started at 14 when I was hired (last year), and is now 14.50. No bonus for gutting it out through peak either (they didn't do it last year, and stands to reason they won't this year either. Hell, they don't even give out UPS merch or anything anymore....they used to, but now the realized they can save money by not doing that anymore because, well you know, screw employee morale, retention, etc).

So you make nothing?
Since I am not a PT Belt supe.


How do you like the approach to 18L at SDF?

@Jumpin Jack Flash you aren't a pilot

You don't even work at UPS.

Are you related to @olroadbeech ?

Contrary to your statement, UPS keeps quite a bit of people for many years, including myself.
What do you consider a great job where the majority of people hired stays until retirement or death?
