Okay Earl. By your own admission, you know nothing about UPS.

I did work there years ago and find it hard to believe any company the size of UPS would have employees that would go months without seeing a supervisor. I don't spend time like you do on their forum but unlike you, I have common sense and believe those drivers were pulling your chain.
I have a package car driver as a neighbor on 1 side and a feeder driver on the other side. I bet both of them see a supervisor more than once every few months.

Yeah, it's the best thing I've done. Kinda funny watching the side conversation when they reply to him, though.

Im not sure what ups you work at but, They can micromanage themselves straight to a harrassment grievance.

Extra Large Package
Well for the package car drivers.....they know how many times you've buckled and unbuckled your seatbelt and then compare that to how many stops you have and if it doesn't match up, you get in trouble. They have GPS on their trucks so if you scan a package before you're at the actual address, it shows up on some report. They also can tell if you've backed up your package car which is a huge no no. Yes, that kind of stuff is like harassment in my opinion, but it's all legal. So monitoring if you scanned a package before arriving at the actual delivery address is micromanagement. Oh and I don't work at UPS.

Extra Large Package
Depends on where you live and the cost of living, but new hire starting pay is $18.XX (for most cities) to around $23.XX (like if you live in San Francisco). Obviously you're not going to live very well in some place like San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle, etc making $23 an hour. Then you're "supposed" to get about a $1 per hr raise per year. So after a decade, you should be from $28/hr (for most cities) to like $33 in places like San Diego.

Limited OT? Not around here?
Plenty for the taking. Just the desire to work is all that is required. Or you could be like UPS and be doing 60 hrs a week this time of year. Plenty of money but tell your family goodbye. You will see them again in January.
Yea like I said I don't have it to bad at my station. 45-47hrs a week is good for me. Plus plenty of home time. I know both companies have there ups and downs but I'm pretty content with what I have now. Also I heard UPS you can't transfer state to state. You basically have to be rehired again and start over. That was a huge turn off for me.

It's called telematics. You dont "get in trouble" for any of that. If they talked to me about 1 or 2 seat belt violations I would grieve them for harrassment before the meeting was over. Unless they are following you and witness you doing any violation in person. They cant talk to you about anything.
If they were following me because I have 1 or 2 seat belt violations over the course of my 190 stop day. I would grieve them for harrassment for following me.
I haven't had 1 talk with about anything (except for calling in sick, attendance review) in years.
