[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1107265, member: 43436"] This use to be commonplace. We use to get 1 UPS Dollar for each week we showed up on-time every day, 1 UPS Dollar for each day without a misload, 5 UPS Dollars for each perfect score on the DOK, etc., 5 UPS Dollars each injury-free month, etc. UPS Dollars could be used against the VIP Gift Catalog, which was pretty cool. Every month the Safety Committee would host a breakfast, and once a month we'd provide another treat (fruit, bagged lunch, etc.) It seemed like every day there was some type of food, anything from doughnuts to sandwiches. And during Christmas, they'd have a 30-minute Christmas party for us Preloaders (20-minutes unpaid, of course) -- with good food and prizes being raffled. Early in my career, I went an entire year with perfect attendance & no misloads and they gave me a Dell computer that sold for nearly $3000 on its website (it had an LCD monitor, which cost over $1000 by itself at the time). I suspect Dell, which was one of our shippers at the time, donated it. I repeated the achievement once more and got a $500 VISA prepaid card.* When Scott Davis took over, it ended. * all gifts, san the computer, were reported as imputed income, so I had to pay taxes on it... but still...
