[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 5066598, member: 1664"] UPS was the means of my earning money, not the teamsters. My route had to be split between three drivers when I retired. Truth does not need to be exaggerated. I really did work those hours and had to load my pkg car out of a trailer parked in a Wall Mart parking lot in every kind of weather. From 110 degree heat to 20 degrees with no shelter from the elements. Just to tickle you thinking I talk BS, it was 19yrs before I ever called in sick. That was the only day I called in sick in 28 and1/2yrs. My wife made me call in sick because I could not get out of bed. Thanks for making my point, UPS paid me and the teamsters never contributed a dime. I rarely bad mouth UPS, as a whole, but I have had personal confrontations/conversations from division managers down to part time pre load sup's and an occasional physical confrontation with fellow drivers. My wealth came from not relying on others. [/QUOTE]
