[QUOTE="Over 70, post: 2779540, member: 65928"] I for the life of me don't understand why so many stress at UPS as drivers. We're all teamsters and if we all just put in an honest hard day of work and let the chips fall where they may no one could do a damn thing about it. Isn't that the point of the union? An agreement for all? Outside of qualifying, I don't get the working off the clock in the morning. The worrying about late air when the start time is late and your dispatch sucks. The taking little or no lunch. Loading the cab up with packages. I just don't get it. I know it's guys who want to get out of dodge asap but it frankly screws people like me who want to follow the rules. I'll have a target and be looked at like I'm lazy or something because I use the methods and take breaks. I'm a newer guy in my 30's and have never worked in a union shop before and can't believe how many take it for granted what they fought for. In my eyes the employees themselves are to blame sometimes for allowing things to progress to where they have. [/QUOTE]
