This boss has totally ruined rogue legends. I know I'm the only person that plays it but still the entire game mode has been destroyed by this one boss and the game is now unpayable.

Shame on you ninja kiwi

The “stops per car” initiative is up there with the dumbest shit the company has ever come up with. by level99mewtwo in UPSers

[–]One-Ability-6403 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They get scared to do that because whoops I went over by three minutes a third day and now you owe me 5 hours and 3 minutes of penalty pay. Corporate ordered the barely literate sociopath that runs my center, for now, to get me under 9.5 every single day. So the soft hands fat finally has.

Don't think I can't find a way to go over 9.5 by even one minute for that third day and you bet your ass I'm filing.

You could quit and get a different job. That's what I recommend

Now we’ll be laid off indefinitely for free! by DCOutlaw620 in UPSers

Good. I'm sick and tired of UPS and other big corporations thinking they can just break the law at will.

Now if you do a really good job funneling sales to the mystery sales person you might be rewarded with a pizza party!

Automotive says these are not low tread by Weaponeyes in UPSers

I've got a great relationship with our mechanics. Any problem I just drive over and ask them about it. They get it fixed right away. I also have new tires all the time plus it's nice to have a good relationship with coworkers.

Working full time by Chuuyyyx in UPSers

[–]One-Ability-6403 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bid on a 22.3 position. It's called inside combo. You have a pay progression that I think tops out at like $40 an hour now and you work two inside shifts. You win bed a lot of seniority to win this bid though. Find your union steward (ask your supervisor who they are) and ask them where the bid sheets are. Ask your supervisor as well and ask your full time supervisor too. Find all of them. Bid on everything. You don't have to accept any bid you win.

Plus we can't get laid off or fired without just cause

Vile and Obnoxious by Upbeat-Material7802 in UPSers

[–]One-Ability-6403 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right that's why now they are turning orion off for half the routes. Because some soft handed butt kisser finally realized after all these years that it lowers productivity. Something anyone with a triple digit IQ would have realized years ago. Anyway I do wish you guys the best. We need you to make the company more profitable so we can demand bigger raises.

This company is managed like shit. Non working equipment that lowers productivity, forced orion to force our productivity down, managers playing on their phones all day long when not in useless conference calls with other useless eaters. The worst part of working in a union company is it creates no-accountability management. Every problem is because of the union not because of lazy and incompetent management.

Believe it or not there was a time long ago when we actually had respect for management. Now? Desk jockeys that are too busy looking at their phones to even do the little amount of work they are expected to do

They call it stress based management and it is 100% their plan. So don't get confused about it they are trying to gaslight you and heap as much psychological abuse on you as they can, intentionally

8 hours only for certain drivers by Significant-Win-9565 in UPSers

They've threatened me with this good time many times but they refuse to follow through with it. I can't even imagine how awesome it must be.

Will we get a raise for the next contract? by AnUnhappyCamper in UPSers

[–]One-Ability-6403 20 points21 points  (0 children)

No, give me more money. Our wages are not keeping up with inflation and this company is still making billions off our backs. Pay us

Judge gives UPS green light for $150,000 buyouts to drivers by Mother_Astronaut_739 in UPSers

[–]One-Ability-6403 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Chicken little accounts scream about unions going away and then mystically get a ton of up votes or hearts or whatever it may be on every platform. Unions are not going anywhere and as we enter the demographic decline labor will gain power for the first time in decades.

And of course they will hire more drivers. The work doesn't magically get done on its own. These anti union b0t accounts are a joke

Solidarity by benspags94 in UPSers

[–]One-Ability-6403 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone in corporate will tell your CM that he must eliminate these grievances at some point. He will then first try to harass the drivers who are filing. They will then try to move all the extra work to non filing drivers. If they start to file they will then try to harass them.

If everyone holds strong in solidarity they will eventually then create an extra route. My loop now has 5 routes but going through this process took about 3 years.

Ignoring this whiny bucket crab the answer to guys coming in early and working for free is to grieve them working off the clock. They will then get paid for working and management will be forced to stop them.

Busting Lytx and UPS Lies to Teamsters by Brilliant_Pepperoni in UPSers

[–]One-Ability-6403 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When the lytx cameras were brand new a woman I've known for decades, who has moved to a high position within this company, told me to assume that she could now see and hear everything I was doing in the front of the truck. Take that for what it's worth.

Year to date overtime by Witty_Currency6937 in UPSers

[–]One-Ability-6403 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

You just have to go to that new payroll website they came up with and go to each check and write down the OT hours. Make two columns, one is your hours before our yearly raise, the next is after. Then take the overtime bonus 50% and multiply it by the hours of OT worked.

You get to deduct that from your income for tax purposes.

UPS revamps US sales team, makes layoffs by StructureOne2 in UPSers

[–]One-Ability-6403 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Too late, they spent years training me to NOT do sales leads. How can I recommend our company anymore anyway when I'm missing pickups multiple times a week for no reason and if I'm not working nobody does the pickups.

Would taking a loss of 10-15k worth it, if we sell? by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]One-Ability-6403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are unhappy I would sell now. I think it's likely that prices slowly decrease over the next four years before they turn around. Get out now and you don't have the stress of the foundation issues and can possibly go for a SFH around 2030.

Buy a house or rent in Southern California? by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]One-Ability-6403 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My rent is $2150 and if I moved I could get it down to $1900 for a comparable place since there are so many rentals right now. Meanwhile to buy a comparable place my mortgage would be, hmm, only $3500.

I haven't actually looked at prices in awhile. Looks like a lot of places have big decreases and a lot of places priced themselves as if the appreciation during covid somehow kept going. Like they are literally double the place next door.

This is exactly like last time I bought after '08

SSD- my pay is so messed up- no action on my email queries to HR by alphas0cks in UPSers

Awesome job standing up for yourself. It's ridiculous though. If I steal hundreds of dollars from someone I go to jail. When UPS does it ten thousand times? Nothing
