[QUOTE="doolittle95, post: 1218982, member: 11844"] I'll look into the friggin cap closer too now thx. However, I stand by the sentiment of my original post: This job, (these jobs) tear the human body up, anyone making a career at UPS will have worn out joints, chronic arthritis, and significantly reduced quality of life going forward. If you don't feel it yet you will. You will retire one day as sure as you will die and when you get there your going to need exceptional healthcare to deal with the physical issues your career has rewarded you with. [I]UPS must take care of their people, they must absorb this expense as a cost of doing business.[/I] Every bargaining unit employee should adopt this mindset instead of the current mindset that expects to lose a little more [I]every freaking contract.[/I] I'm simply trying to flip the paradigm here. Instead of we the people expecting less because we've heard that is what to expect for decades now. I want us to believe were worth a lot more. Shouldn't this paradigm be shifted to the executives? The executives and the ones managing the profit should begin to expect LESS of that profit, and EXPECT that a more equitable division of wealth is necessary. It better for the greater whole by far. better for the economy too. It would not require much of that $4bil+ profit for most of us to feel the shift in that paradigm. gotta go run cardboard now...ill have to finish later [/QUOTE]
