I am puzzled. Not being a current employee, I don&#039;t understand what you are saying. Could you spell this out for those of us who haven&#039;t been able to see it in person???? &quot;Be perfect or be unemployed&quot; seems way over the top for a company that has always been so good at weasel-words. What is the context here?



Its quite simple thought being from the outside I understand your confusion. Its a pressure point. Nobody can be perfect yet by holding people to a standard they know they can&#039;t meet without cheating the stated methods and procedures, and knowing that at there rate of compensation they can&#039;t meet or beat in a non-unionized world, forces them to either work off the clock, forge time cards claiming lunches where taken when they actually worked through them, sign for customers packages, and /or violate raft of methods and procedural infractions of UPS policy that UPS does profit from and yet leave the driver exposed to the blame for failure to follow the same procedural errors should something go wrong. Its all upside for UPS and no down side when your system point the finger back at powerless people who are just trying to support there families. That&#039;s UPS and corporate American in general.</blockquote>
