[QUOTE="Loufan, post: 656745"] One time the power went out at UPS, and management was flipping out, telling us to get on the belt and push all the boxes either to primary or to our belt. So this belt is probably 100 yards long, tons of curves, slides, bars where you have to crawl. So after an hour or so we finished it. I was burning up could barely breathe, my back hurt, and I had cuts from where I hit my back/head arms on the chutes/slides/bars from pushing boxes. 5 minutes later the stupid power came back on. I have never been so ticked off in my life. I know they were just making us do that to stay busy so they wouldn't have to pay us for doing nothing, even though it's their fault the power kept going out and they couldn't get the generator working right. Well about 3 months later it happened when we had a snow storm. They told us to crawl on the belts and do it again. I pretty much just refused. I stayed in the truck and loaded what they would push to me. Sure enough, about 5 minutes from the belt being cleared off the power came on. Stuff like that pisses me off, and UPS can really suck on occasion. I told my supervisor I am never crawling on the belt again. [/QUOTE]
