[QUOTE="Brown287, post: 5118803, member: 14940"] Volume is on the decline, Amazon has vanished from our building along with half our residential stops. Better not Bigger means less jobs, less union jobs. You guys aren’t looking at the big picture. It’s about the pensions. Out west roughly 6 of every 10 dollars contributed into our pension are UPS dollars all the while far less going out is UPS specific. Without UPS a lot of halls around the country will cease to exist. So yeah, less jobs means less contributions and more drain from the pensions and more strain on UPS. The Union is well aware of the threat that Amazon presents to both UPS and the Union regardless of all you having your heads buried in the sand. Look at the use of PVD’s and the Unions inability to stop their existence. Yeah us old timers complain about young entitled punks but sub contracting sure the hell would of never happened 20 years ago. By the way just incase no one noticed, the lead article on BC tonight specifically talks about how we are no longer the largest courier. Evidently that’s Fed Ex now, still think this is funny.
