[QUOTE="AwashBwashCwash, post: 3768779, member: 73305"] I'm a young virile man. I feel like I'm made of steel. Delusional? Maybe. But to be honest I'm not that concerned about health insurance. If it's there then great but it's not something I'm really gonna use. The health insurance thing is kind of ironic in that UPS ends up attracting a lot of older, slower, weaker workers who want the insurance while all the able-bodied young guys go out the door and move on to bigger better things. We're the guys who get the actual work done but the company doesn't do much to retain us. A better wage would definitely help the turn-over problem. I work 70 hours a week between all my jobs. I have a full-time day job, I come in to do sort at night, and then I've got some stuff on the weekends. Most of the other part-timers are working similar hours. The drivers sound like babies to us when they whine. Some days I wonder why I even bother with UPS. $160 a week, it's honestly not worth even coming in. [/QUOTE]
