I'm sure it varies by area but I'mThe driver turnover isn't near as high as insiders. We haven't lost a driver in my building in almost two years. Insiders on the other hand...

If it is such an investment to put new people on then why do they spend so much time, effort, and money trying to fire people...no matter if the union has got your job back everybody has known others that have been "fired"...ups wouldn't try to do it if they weren't halfway serious about it.It costs a lot of money to hire a new driver. They send them to school for a week and pay them. Then they baby them and give them a 6 hour dispatch.
Plus all the safety time them pay them.
If I had been told that there would be a 9 year wait to go FT I never would have taken the job.
He is the entire center manager glutes.As soon as he removes his nose from his center manager's rear this evening I'm sure he will let us know whats going on
Like Orion?I don't see us training drivers 3 years in advance. Its too much money. UPS only spends money when it has too
Are you an Obama fan???Thanks to President Obama!
Like Orion?
Ok look at it as an investment. Millions if not billions are pumped into the Teamsters every year for our benefits,etc. suppose they didn't have to pay that anymore? That three year plan not looking so bad now is it? Investment wise I mean. Put out a bunch now hoping for a big return later? Of course it could fail, but hey yea never know.It's crossed my mind but there's no way we would be training them now.
They would hire them all
Right before the next contract.
Impressive wild speculation though.
They are making a come back.Maybe it's DHL they're after!!!!
You mentioned UPS only spending money when they have too. That was my reply.Orion has been in the making for almost 10 years. I highly doubt we are hiring thousands of drivers for 2027

I think you were joking, but there's an opportunity there. Get the international stuff we make good money on.Maybe it's DHL they're after!!!!
According to an annoying salesman on here we should be afraid!!!They are making a come back.
