[QUOTE="T Princess Local 866, post: 752677, member: 29111"] Socks I gave to UW for over 20 years. Then both of my parents were dying at the same time. I needed help...... I went to UW and more or less got a kick in the butt. I was on my own. Bless my sup who let me come in 2 hours early let me leave early so i could take my shift with my parents. I had a friend who also worked at UPS got into a terrible car accident and needed there help... again on her own. Another one had Cancer went to UW .... Yep same place the rest of us are. I no longer give through UPS to UW. I give to Autism speaks on my own. UW helps people don't get me wrong. It is just it didn't help the people i loved in any way shape or form. I am not telling people not to give it's there own choice. At the time I was giving i didn't care if sups gave or not it was my own choice to give. As for the pushing and pressure I don't agree with that and I have seen it happen. I have also seen people say no but there cards get signed by someone else. It's all well documented. When I gave it did not bother me that it came from "UPS" Just as much as when the Teamsters give it does not bother me that it comes from "The Teamsters" or "Local 177" it's how I feel inside knowing i helped someone. Now I choose to do it a different way on my own. [/QUOTE]
