Why is that? Because you chose to? You decided to play the waiting game of seniority instead of the waiting game of lay-off? Shouldn't you feel what it is like making sure you have alternate work lined up so you can keep putting food on the table? Shouldn't you feel what it's like to not be guaranteed work every day? Not to be able to count on a certain amount in your paycheck weekly? Shouldn't you feel what it's like to STILL have to pay Union dues with no representation?
Driving is NOT for everyone........I've seen FAR more lousy drivers getting jobs due to having seniority then lousy drivers hired from the outside.
Your new at UPS, correct? You've never loaded prior to PAS? If I'm wrong I'm sorry.....but don't tell those of us who have the old way how hard your job is now.
WOW...talk about coming out with your guns blazing.....not sure if or who peed in your cornflakes this morning.
Why is that? Because I think everyone should feel what it is like from the bottom up. In fact i don't think its fair that I was sent streight to preload. For those who start out in the unuion and then go SUp....they should stick to their road of managment.
Because you chose to? No, read above.
You decided to play the waiting game of seniority instead of the waiting game of lay-off? I looked at the best options and took the road that looked to be the best road. Still say everyone should go through the same channels.
Shouldn't you feel what it is like making sure you have alternate work lined up so you can keep putting food on the table? LOL...did you see that I have 2 other businesses?? I work crazy hours so we can eat. Don't tell me about having other worked linned up. Do you really believe I could live off of a 90-100 dollar pay check.
Shouldn't you feel what it's like to not be guaranteed work every day? That would not help out UPS. Having all drivers being required to do the warehouse union jobs would help them see and understand the workings of us low part timers. Just like managment should only hire from the part time sups.
Not to be able to count on a certain amount in your paycheck weekly? My check is not even close to the same every week. And again feeling that does nothing for UPS. We all want UPS to get bigger. More jobs. Hire people right off the street that have never ever worked at UPS....is nothing but plain stupid. Give it to the people that have worked and delt with the crap and kept UPS in the black..
Shouldn't you feel what it's like to STILL have to pay Union dues with no representation That would be stupid. My job requires me to be in the union. I have no choice. Where do you get off thinking I want to be in the union?
I am not sure where you are getting all bent up. I have a big problem with someone being hired who came right in off the street and the guy who has put in 3 years in the center taking all kinds of BS and working crazy hours gets passed up for some joe who has never gotten a UPS check. And I am sure they are greased people time to time..,,,,,And for SUPS to get a driving gig is a little less BS but yet still UPS. Being a SUP you are choosing a managment path. Being loaders sorters and so on you are choosing a blue collar path. OK...eough, dont want to argue...we are all here to put foods on the tables. Goodluck
