[QUOTE="bsbmc, post: 665901, member: 6970"] i'm a part-time air driver on saturdays and as well as driver helper and seasonal driver. i just completed my sixth seasonal period and i'm getting just totally fed up with the fact that UPS can do whatever they want to do and the union holds nothing at all. today i was pulled off the preload to deliver three early ams, well after that was complete i was told to meet a driver and take 15 ground stops off of him and deliver them out of the seasonal period then i was told to shuttle for a while.. well i just punched out after 10 hours of work and called my union steward to see about this delivering ground out of the seasonal period. well of course he didn't have a clue so he had to call our union rep. from louisville and basically what he told my union was a bunch of bullsh**. basically he said that ups asked the teamsters if they could extend the seasonal period two weeks into the new year because of all the added volume that we have been getting hit with.. so basically our union rolled over again and let the company do whatever they wanted to do. you can only sacrifice so much for a company that has no issues with never taking a fulltime driver again in my building atleast. they haven't taken one in a year and a half, but they sure can use and abuse us seasonal drivers and air drivers... its all bullsh**, i don't ever see them haven't to take a full time driver again beacuse with both seasonal periods and this vacation coverage driver and the union lettting them extend the seasonal period when ever they please it will never be any need for another full time driver again.. in the meantime i get used and abused and my familiy has to make sacrifices by me bouncing around working two jobs for next to nothing... UPS is a crappy company to work for especially in this day in age as a seasonal driver.... hope i didn't make anyone mad but i feel it is all the truth... i've read and been on this site prolly once a week for years and i haven't made to many posts but i was just compelled to make this one.... mad upsers out....
