[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 949482, member: 4886"] Hoaxster, even if you use UPS own words to us and that is was delayed 3 months is just a part of the story. They have said we slightly missed our target goals and therefore got 95% of the target awards. If it was really just a delay, then they would have said 95% of target * 1.25 years so the MIP would have been higher. But instead they gave us 95% of the target but for only one year of data. So in short, they delayed us by 3 months and we LOST permanently those 3 months. That isn't a delay, that's a total loss. Even that alone is minor compared to the fact that the MIP used to be 15% of gross profit. They took this and determined the factor by taking the 15% of gross profits as the numerator and then divided by (sum of supv monthly salary + 2* sum of mgr monthly salary). They aren't doing that any more. Instead it's on some metrics that change year to year. Also, even Kurt Kuehne said one of the reasons we missed our element on service was due to inclement weather. Huhh?? Bad weather where there are no GSR impacted our MIP? Although I'm bummed and a little upset about the changes, overall I'm fine with it. Why am I fine with the changes? I realized as others have siad, it's just a job now and it's no longer a partnership. In the past I routinely worked 60 hour weeks, when there was something due I worked longer. When I went away on vacations I took my laptop and did at least 20 hours of work on a vacation, oftentimes 40 hours. My wife was pissed that I wouldn't leave work for a week to spend time on vacation. Now... I leave work, I work closer to 45 hours a week, and I see that number decreasing too. Now I plan on doing my job, doing it well, then when it's quitting time, go home and deal with the rest of it tomorrow. If anything, per hour I'm making more then I used to since I work a lot less hours. I figure if UPS wants to pay industry avg or slightly above industry average, then I will give industry average for hours worked, or slightly above industry average for hours worked. I am definitely happier about life and a lot of pressure has been removed, I still make enough money to live comfortably on. [/QUOTE]
