Sir Winston Churchill:
“Socialism will only work in two places; in heaven where it is not needed, and in hell where they already have it. Capitalism is the unequal distribution of wealth. Socialism is the equal distribution of poverty. Communism is nothing but socialism with a gun at your back.”
you should look up what prince says about people owning things LOL
Prince Warns Young Artists: Record Contracts Are 'Slavery'
"He also voiced his disapproval about how record labels turn artists into "indentured servitude,""
""Once we have our own resources, we can provide what we need for ourselves,""
"In 1993, when Prince and Warner Bros. were warring over his record contract, the rocker frequently appeared in public and onstage with "slave" scrawled on his cheek. Prince would soon change his name to "the Artist Formerly Known As" and "the Love Symbol" in an effort to "emancipate" himself "from the chains that bind me to Warner Bros." Prince and the label later reconciled for 2014's Art Official Age."
i dont think its a radical idea that workers should collectively own and make decisions at the jobs they work in.Sir Winston Churchill:

i think its more radical to centralize power in the hands of a few bosses, than to have it in the hands of many workers
forbes talks about it in this article but they dont call it socialism.
Unless It Changes, Capitalism Will Starve Humanity By 2050

Because some of our co-workers are dumbasses?

Your opinion would carry a little more weight if, you know, you actually work for UPS.

Well. look who came back after a tear long hiatus.
Apparently, your management training did not include learning contractual language.
The seasonal period ended January 15. Big difference.
The guy just needs to contact his steward.

No, it's not. It's just that where we do that, the majority vote for a nice chair to sit down in at work.
i did and i got fired because its hard times for UPS and they couldnt bother to call me before i showed up for work to let me know whether there was gonna be work or not.
the fact is americans complain about their jobs on one hand but cant put 2 and 2 together and instead defend capitalism quite often.
Thanks for the welcome back.
Yes the seasonal period ends Jan 15. Under the supplement in my area it's also the last day TCD's can work...
Hard times for UPS... really....

I thought it was because they wouldn't give you the board of directors, or CEO's phone number. And you went off
people should be doing whatever they can to make life hard for UPS until they or we change their ways, including what you just said. capitalism is uncivilized.
michael moore went right into the head offices with a worker who got fired for no good reason, ill pull it up for you since you think rocking the boat is such a bad idea.
now youll have to excuse me, i have to rent my labor / pretend to work for 8 hours or less if im lucky

I've never heard of someone getting fired from UPS for "no good reason." We have a guy who tried to pick up a letterbox full of NDA and internationals after the building locked up, and he's still employed. No one gets fired for no reason.
In order to get fired from UPS you need to be basically trying to get fired, or just plain stupid.....
