UPS Fires 250 Employees for Staging a Strike

Source: Slate

UPS is firing 250 Queens, N.Y., drivers for walking off the job during a 90-minute protest in February.

The company dismissed 20 of the workers after their shifts Monday and issued notices of termination to another 230 employees, notifying them that they will be fired once the company has trained their replacements, UPS spokesman Steve Gaut told Business Insider.

The workers were protesting the dismissal of longtime employee and union activist Jairo Reyes, who was fired over an hours dispute, according to Gaut. The New York Daily News first reported on the firings.

...............

UPS fired back that it might need to terminate additional employees if the city alters its contract. “UPS appreciates its business with the New York public offices,” Gaut said. “Ultimately if that business is reduced or eliminated, the result will be reduced need for UPS employees to serve the pick-up and delivery requirements of City offices, potentially impacting the livelihoods of the many local UPS employees that did not join in the illegal work stoppage.”

Nationalize UPS????????????? Yeah, that will work.

Uh, actually it is going to be a bad idea, like we are seeing with health care. Other nations that nationalized industries ended up being disasters. DUmmies always say nationalize things or expand the government.  :mental:

Yes because every other government run program is a shinning star of efficiency and production.  Amtrak, USPS, NASA, SS, ACA, Medicaid...

I have uninstalled Waterfox (64-bit Firefox), and I am now using Opera.

Opera may too, be built by fascists, but they're NORWEGIAN fascists.
