UPS in the air
UPS has announced the loss of 12,000 jobs, in the light of a difficult and disappointing year
, and a quite luxurious pay deal meted out to its full-time drivers, for whom 2023 seems to have been really quite agreeable.
Personally, I avoid UPS like the plague whenever I can. They're generally more expensive than the competition, but more importantly the quality of the service is lower. When I purchased a new bicycle a few years ago, they managed two deliveries with a busted frame; broken in transit. They're fucking imbeciles. (grumpy)
