[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 733441, member: 927"] Tie, Wizard, Maybe I oversimplified and / or people read into things I didn't intend.... When they announced 1800 fewer jobs, I always thought the end of the line would mean that some number of management people would be told they must leave UPS whether they wanted to stay or not. This was my definition of a "forced seperation". I was not counting admins or specialists. Maybe I should have thought about this, but I did not. I did the math long ago... 1800 less positions. About 1000 people oferred a buyout. Mabye 50% take it... That meant to me that lots of management people would be told that they had no UPS job. Again, right or wrong, this is how I thought. It looks like this initial thought will not work this way. That is my bet. I do not think we will see any management people (or very few) told that they MUST leave UPS. I know that many were forced into jobs they didn't want, locations they didn't want, forced to take a demotion, etc. Again, when I said forced seperations, I meant told that they had no job whether they wanted to stay or not. I honestly do not know hom many specialists were forced out (if any). I do know that admins were forced out. I was limiting my comments to MIP management. Rumors are that there will be promotions because we are short people, believe it or not. Tie, since this is all opinion its hard not to speak the truth. I'm just making a prediction. P-Man [/QUOTE]
