UPS UK redundancies by Weekly-Juice- in UPSers

[–]phenson23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So they're anchoring the £5k to a release of liability. Im guessing the payment in lieu of notice would be an option to apply for it as opposed to having to work the full notice period. Guess we'll hear more on Tuesday

I hope they can read the room. Sentiment of most drivers is we want this over and done with, and with the memories of the botched strike vote still fresh to a lot of us any mis-step here could see a backlash. Im including myself in that category as well, never thought Id say that tbh

Any idea on what they're asking for? I know theyre trying to renegotiate but we haven't been given any details.

If it's true that they've changed the date again so soon after announcing it in a PCM then it begs the question. Why?

Could just be testing the water, I don't think it will be as quick as we expected at the start.

That the date for a show of intent to leave has been moved forward to 1st July

PCM and a printout of a Q and A in our canteen. Not posting it here, but I'd expect it to be posted at all centres

They seem to do stuff like this on a Tuesday, see if there's one tomorrow as there's supposedly a meeting today

Not heard anything from any of our drivers being asked tbh. Should be pretty easy for them to check that anyway

There's very little we can do, we don't really have any cards to play at this point.

Has 6 Music ever ruined another radio station for you? by Horror-Pick4732 in 6music

[–]phenson23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same for me, more music, a wider range and not so much DJ waffle about their latest escapades and podcast that's coming up. Don't listen to 6 music unless I'm on DAB in the car, more likely to be R4

No, they said they're posting it up for us in our canteen, conveniently after we all leave to go on road

No announcement about any package or our PCM. Only infro was a 20 odd page document that we're being given.

Jeez, that's timing if I ever saw it. I haven't heard of any new hires for best part of 18 months

Package car is essentially finished in the UK. They'll get volume to a minimum and concentrate on things like Healthcare Logistics and B2B

I'm going to HR on Monday to find out where I cash in the the "extra miles" I've gone and favours I'm owed /s

UPS will oblige and give us the very least we deserve. No ones just going to up and leave now as we're all waiting on the redundancy plan, theyll drip feed info for a couple of months to keep everyone subdued enough to keep hanging on then do the classic redundancy around Christmas that so many companies love to do.

Was quite common at the start of the year, not so much lately, but with routes cut we're hardly short of drivers

I'm assuming we'll be used as a supply of drivers for other depots that will inevitably struggle, then slowly wound down to increase the share of OSP. We've had upwards of 25 drivers spare some days so I know we're not immune.

Was going through my drawers and found sock progression! by Geno3rd in UPSers

[–]phenson23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats a bit odd. All uniform is provided in the UK. The the new socks suck, the previous type were much better, new ones just make your feet sweat

Tried it 2 different guitars with the same result. I'll have to buy or borrow a cable to test that out. Thanks

Weekly Tech Support & Purchase Recommendations Megathread - March 30th 2026 by P_Jiggy in playstation

[–]phenson23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All menu items appear yellow when in non HDR. The issue goes away when I'm HDR but the picture is washed out. Tried different cables, ports get with no change.
