[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 82905, member: 1944"] Pretty well said, now if you registered we could vote for you. Ups is a great company, we all know it. And you cant beat the pay, even though many of UPS hourly have degrees they do not move on for the reasons you listed. You may get stuck in life and need to stay. There are other ways to make a living, and many would choose that, but until we decide to make that jump, we do stay. And most of us love it, the responsibility of driving a 80K truck, isnt given to just any yahoo, and for the most part we are respected for that alone. And we do our jobs to the best of our ability, union or not, if you arent trying, you will be gone. You can go to any company website, and people will have complaints....if it was always fun it wouldnt be called work, From my perspective, I have seen jobs I would rather be doing, but they dont pay.........I see people who work hard, or think they are and I listen to them complain about pushing paperwork, when I am pushing tons of work. But everyone has their threshold for physical work, and tedious work, Ill take physical and money over that. My bosses job isnt fun , he probaly makes more, but I wouldnt trade my truck for his desk, any day. And many days I would bet he would trade places in a heart beat. And many days I bet he dreams of interviewing for a different company, and some do, and good for them. Until you find the better place you plod along, doing what you do, and looking around at the job market, most days it doesnt seem so bad, then some days it looks like the worst place in the world to be. I didnt start here fresh out of high school, I was 26, I had worked many jobs, I had 13 one record yr...And never got fired from any, just decided, Nah this aint it. And moved on. Ive worked several second jobs while at UPS and I always stay. And at this point in my life, I enjoy my vacations, my seniority, and the respect I recieve on the road. And even on a bad day, it is probaly still better than most places. JMHO [/QUOTE]
