Yes, I'm aware UPS furloughed 109 of our IPA brothers. Felt it was a poor decision considering UPS was making big money, but all large corporate american companies act this way, share holders first.
You must be hangin with the wrong crowd if you only know disgruntled people here. I make $300,000/yr, worked under 10 days in December ( peak time here ), A plan 1%, B plan 12%, unused sick pay paid out in January, premium health care,.......
Yeah, there's jacked up things here, but in all, it's been a pretty good ride for most.
Again, you can always check out other airline jobs if this place isn't for you.
Actually, I don't hang with any crowd. UPS types aren't my thing if you catch my drift....I'm stuck with them on layovers but that's about it. Especially those mid-90's "I got nowhere else to be hired at" types....wink wink.
As for getting another job. I hardly need someone like you to tell me that.
What else you got to enlighten me with, Curley?
