[QUOTE="Dynomite, post: 1105193, member: 29116"] You need to start working out and eating healthier. You work part time (at least you did when this was written) stop overreacting. You are most definitely not using the methods if your body is in such terrible condition after five years from working 3.5 hours a day. I get drivers complaining of this because I work closely with them and see how many packages they deliver and how many hours they work (even if its for 48 an hour) but you are doing something wrong if your body is in such poor condition from a part time job. I worked 5 years as a loader on one the heaviest PD's in both hubs I've worked in. My body is in the same condition as it was when I was hired if not better. I had bad knees prior to getting hired. Now to solve the problem of not getting good talent in UPS is an easy fix. The union needs to stop defending lazy people. Plain and simple. The unloaders in my hub are some of the laziest people I've ever seen with zero work ethic. The loaders hate the unloaders because of all the bitching they do. The unloaders feel like they can just not show up whenever they want until they get the warning letter then show up for a week and then not show up for another week. Rinse repeat. The reason unions are getting less popular in this country is because of people like that. The teamsters are not better then any corporation. All they care about is money, if that lazy person pays dues then who cares what their work ethic is like. I'm shocked that IBT is okay with people representing them like that. UPS will be union busting very soon, and its because IBT is slowly killing itself. EDIT: Want more involvement from PT's? How about you don't defend people that don't pay dues in RTW states.
