[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 815156, member: 484"] UPS is not the only one that dumps money in their laps, Unions are a great donation cow as well. And it is because of the union and its rules that UPS can not provide you with a special job to accommodate your injury. Many years ago, we had a driver that had been at UPS for 25 years or so. Developed diabetes. Had to take insulin. Got pulled off road because of the problem. UPS made him a full time job out of two part time. The union agreed that the job would never be a bid job, that when he was sick or on vacation, the job would be performed by two part timers, and when he retired, the job would no longer exist, and become two part time jobs again. But the union is no longer willing to work with UPS to take care of employees, so why should UPS even try. My suggestion to you is max out your rehab, get into the best physical shape you can, then go for whatever job you can do. If it is not driving for UPS, your world will not come to an end, unless you quit on life. Best of luck d [/QUOTE]
