U.P.S update

The part-time sup. in the primary is a real bitch- I'm sorry to report that in the last 3 weeks she has warned me that she is going to take away Ipods, bathroom breaks, snack machine breaks, and that the sort better get cleaned up or else!! She seems to think that the sorters are sabatoging the system out of spite. She even went as far as to tell our boss, one day last week, that I was responsible for all the packages being sent to the brown belt with no labels. Now this is very serious- first off, she was wrong. I did not sabatoge the system that day and if you get caught doing such a thing you can be discharged on the spot. I have 3 girls at home to provide for and would not jeopardize my job in such a foolish way!! Second off- I do not even own a fucking Ipod! 3rd off- You do not tell a teamster that they can not take a break- Shit, smoke, piss or food break, that is why we pay union dues!! To be entitled to take a break!!

Earlier today at work, once again I was informed that our bathroom breaks were going to be taken away. I did not react very professional with my response. Anybody that did not already hear about the whole ordeal. Let me just say that it was not pretty! It did not get any prettier when we sat down in the office to work on our relationship. Shane, Kathy, and myself had a good ole time in the preload office behind closed doors. I feel bad for not feeling bad when Kathy walked out in the middle of being told what a piece of shit she is and how she gets in the way all day long. It is not good to keep your feelings bottled up inside of you- so I let them all out. It felt pretty good! There is a small part of me the feels bad though- When her eyes got that watered down look right before she departed our meeting, it did make me a little sad. Maybe I was just upset because I still had a few more jabs to take. All I know is that I try to do a good job for the preload, I also know that I can work and get along with almost everybody. I get a paycheck- so I do not expect a pat on the back, but just do not try to stab me in the back!! It could get ugly!!

Love almost always,
