[QUOTE="coolslice, post: 4239508, member: 50491"] I don't believe drones will have any impact in the next couple of years, BUT UPS has the money to put into the technology and almost certainly at some point they will be implemented to some extent. It's pretty clear that UPS is serious about technology and automation as being a very prominent part of the operation going forward. IMHO, UPS is in the transition period of moving away from an experienced, tenured, traditional workforce. They are moving more towards a workforce that is more transient, for lack of a better word. Workers will be paid less, and less will be expected of them. Turnover will be high, but expectations will be lower due to the increased technology and automation taking away the critical thinking aspects of the job. [/QUOTE]
