[QUOTE="union4life, post: 870954, member: 35190"] You are correct in my oppinion. I don't think I would go as far as to taunt my fellow co-workers, but I would make sure I explain to them the reasoning behind my actions. The language works in my center. I know a lot of drivers that complain but don't use the contract tools that are in place. Why? From what I have seen, the answer is more often than not, the drivers are simply too "lazy" to do the job the correct way. I really hate to use the word "lazy". I don't mean it in a derogatory manner. I just can't seem to grasp why drivers who are going to make this job a life long commitment, won't put forth the effort to make UPS happy by following all the rules. They are affraid of management getting on their car and firing them for minor infractions. They know they don't have "clean" work methods. They don't know their "depth of knowledge". They can't take the "heat-pressure" when they are approached. For all these reasons, they simply will take the easy road and blame the drivers who do it right. Of course, these are simply the oppinions I have formed after working in my center for 20 years. Some people just don't get it. We have what we have because of the Brothers and Sisters before us. Protect your job and use the contract. Ignorant people misconstrue this as selfish behavior. Take the time to educate them. We need everyone on board. [/QUOTE]
