[QUOTE="andrew99, post: 635737, member: 23431"] I aboslutely do have an axe to grind with the company. I've been at ups for the better half of a decade, and don't know many here as long as me who don't. There's a few, but they're bleedin brown and drinkin koolaid --- nobody i'd take advise or gather perspective from. UPS is a big company, the hub where i work especially... there are many instances where 300 packages a night in unload can satisify the honest shifts work for honest shifts pay motto, but, i'm not here to convince folks. I'll just restate my opinion, that UPS management (not just supervisors) want you to get hurt. It helps keep the long term costs down if someone quits after they get hurt, and what a better way to get someone to quit than to run them through the grinders everyday. You talk about the sort isle as if it is the gravy train, where all belts flow downhill and there's never a problem in the world. Maybe you need to take a trip to my hub, there's two belts at ~ 5 ft off the ground (one front one back) as well as an irreg belt , which means, you often get irregs mixed in with your packages. Have fun in the sort isle, I bet you wouldnt last a week here coolaid. [/QUOTE]
