[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 715669, member: 18708"] Your co-workers were more than brutally honest in saying they cannot stand you in that complaint thread last year. You can take it however you want. I am one of those guys you speak of, who does practically nothing full-time and gets paid 24.20/hr. Those jobs are UNION jobs and, I hate to say this, you won't be getting one unless you go full-time driving first. Those jobs were won by Ron Carey in the 1990s when UPS went on strike in 1997. Since then Ron was displaced by Hoffa Jr. and now the jobs that were won (inside full-time) are leaving, not coming. Only full-time employees can bid on them, not part-timers. So your only way into a 22.3 FT job is to get in the package car then "bid down". The union faught hard and won the FT inside jobs. If it were not for democratic Teamsters, there would be no fair pay and certainly no inside full-time jobs. Do you not see irony of being anti-union yet wanting an easy full-time job that was solely established because of union solidarity? t [/QUOTE]
