[QUOTE="Ptrunner, post: 679333, member: 14530"] I agree with tieguy on this one. There are upsers who are service minded and thats great. I think if this is a once in a while problem that happens. Like one or two packages a month. Not a big big deal. Same thing that goes to supervisors that lets say tape a package or make service for a package by loading in. Same thing once in a while. But when it comes to being a few times a week thing then we have problems and thats where the contract comes in. As for UPSSOCKS, you said it yourself in your statement. You have a bunch of 19 year olds who probably just want to get off the clock as soon as possible and dont care about the union. Thats why your union steward gets away with what he does. At my building, I would and many other people let the business agent know. Then get a petition where I believe 50% of the work force would force a special election for new steward. There must be a lot of people in your building who either dont care about the union and or people afraid of management if they file a grievance. And also lack of knowledge of the contract. Anyways I wish you were transferred to my building then we could show you how Teamsters is suppose to act, therefore you can reshape your opinions on unions. In my building I dont have to file that many grievances. If i say i saw this person working for 8 minutes. I get 8 minutes added to my time. I dont get the double time but at least they pay and do a good job with it. Theres been a few times they havent paid because of other issues that surrounded why the supes were working but I ended up getting my money through the grievance procedure. [/QUOTE]
