[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 5407555, member: 49065"] Hate to tell you this... but From what I read you are probably on their hit list once they decide to downsize. They are doing it now at UPS, outsourcing, eliminating whole departments and have and will be offering buy outs for their management people. They can’t do the same to their Union workforce, not because they have to follow a Collective Bargaining agreement, the real reason that they are not downsizing us is that they couldn’t do the work required with anybody else in the labor market. Do not undervalue what they now classify as an [B]“essential worker”. [/B]They couldn’t not survive the loss of their Senior Union workforce, fact is most of us Union grunts are running the day to day operations based on our work knowledge. Most of the management teams are there strictly to provide HR services to their assigned work areas. I have to add your comment about being paid more than any UPS worker, excluding management have you seen our maximum hourly rate let alone the fact that most of us have 500 dollars a [B]week[/B] going into both our pension and Health and Welfare plans. You might want to backtrack on that claim..🤔 [/QUOTE]
