Begging the question, how often does UPS fire guys and for how little or how much? I hear a lot fear mumblings of the master but observe he rarely strikes out and when he does the union usually tames him.

I'd say that's pretty accurate. Just don't steal, lie, or use the company xerox machine for personal stuff.

I can't really remember feeling too badly over anyone that got fired and then lost their arbitration.

Monday Z day is the only day with no flights to SDF but can catch the one out of EWR. Also if live west of PHL, MDT becomes an option if flights full. A few years ago had several mechanics commuting that sometimes filled up the jumpseats.

Agree with everyone else though, PHL would be an easy commute.


Former Association President Bob M’s comment about those “warning letters” was: The only way they can hurt you is if you roll it up and stick it in your eye. This especially true since it is a contractual right.
