[QUOTE="Griff, post: 304746, member: 7111"] I think it's a good job overall. The majority of people in with a UPS drivers tax bracket are skilled tradesmen or white collar workers. That raises some eyebrows but only on people who have never done the job. In my opinion, we are compensated exactly as the contract states -- [SIZE=-1] fair day’s work for a fair day’s pay. Although I do think a case can be made that people in the major metro areas are slightly underpaid. 70k goes a whole lot farther out in Oklahoma than in Manhattan, COLA doesn't do much to close that gap. As for the "greatest company to work for" bit -- I think that line was true in the past, not anymore. Just because a company (that is a union shop) fairly compensates their employees doesn't make them the greatest company to work for. UPS as a corporate entity has done some nasty things to some of their employees over the years and continue to do so and that can't be overlooked. [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
