Obama: "The Private Sector Is Doing Fine"

no no no, all we need is to outsource the delivery of ups boxes to malaysia, that way our economy will prosper

hopefully soon, we can get rid of all these unions so we can be a 3rd world country ourselves, and finally be competitive again

 

I got one word for you.

Logistics. Er, plastics.

 

Those sorters and truck drivers are really hard to replace.

 

the only shitty thing is that you have to replace them with americans, stupid labor laws

 

Not everyone can cut it. Its tough work, thats no secret.

 

Some drivers and sorters apparently make $100k, but as commerce continues to diminish, either wages will come down, or there will be more layoffs.

I have no problem with UPS drivers making that much bank. My neighbor is a 25-year UPS vet, and they just bought a sweet new Lexus.

Stimulates the economy.

 

I have no problem with it either, but it is absurd to argue that UPS can be competitive without the "nerds" and analysts running the show and just rely on drivers and sorters.

 

One day packages will be sent via ninja stars.

 

I always send my next day shit via FedEx. to me, it just seems more reliable. they seem to do international shipping better.

 

so if the nerds get fired, what, is it hard to find more nerds?

fire everyone!!

 

the nerds will shut the system down. :MARIS61:

 

i just think its funny "oh jeeze WHERE will we find people to carry boxes around"

when fact is, nerds dont want to carry boxes, so they will all be fighting over the nerd jobs, driving the nerd job salaries down, until people are going to deliveryman college so they can make a REAL living

 

I hire illegal aliens to lift boxes at my work. mainly to have them sweat. :MARIS61:

 

I don't think the average joe can sweat it out making peanuts in the warehouse. Like physical labor, ya know.

 

sorting boxes? yeah. I would die of boredom. but you can't send the dope ass fucking emails like I can.

 

No. Like picking up thousands of boxes a shift. Turnover rate is at 80%.

 

yeah. would get bored mad quickly.

 

about the same at my work. but then again, we hire idiots.

 

I completely agree with you on that. I do find it funny that a package monster is bemoaning the logistics team, and laughing when he thought it was they who lost their jobs. Every job matters, and UPS is a good company.

 

i think it is funny that when someone who works hard for a living makes alot of money, all the lazy people call it unfair

once again, teachers, firefighters, and blue collar workers are ruining america
