To move families to Anchorage and leave them stranded, to tell the pilot group that they aren't even thinking about a furlough and then three weeks later a furlough is announced, to take money from the MOU and then cancel it and decide to furlough anyway, to park airplanes and outsource using SCS, to throw guys on the street saying there is no flying to be done while we turn away or act uninterested in military flying or flying freight etc, hiring everywhere else and talking to the pilots at those other companies and having them tell me/us about how much UPS stuff they carry on a daily basis....it goes on and on...so, when you see what this company is doing to try and keep people on the street (not that they are intentionally trying to do that, but that is what is happening with their many poor decisions).... People *****ing about how they left a good job to come here only to be furloughed doesn't mean that they don't take any personal responsibility for accepting the job here at UPS, it means (I think, I could be wrong) that they are sick and tired of the idiotic crap that is going on around here when this entire furlough seems unnecessary.
