Once I had fulfilled my
daily quota, I was told to go hide for the last couple hours of my
shift.

Yeah, part of what killed GM, etc... AC Delco parts factory in Flint
was famous for that...


You could say that about every unionized industry in the past 100 years.

The teacher's unions are the newest idiots-at-work.

A shirt tail relative worked there for 30 years
- she was TOLD by union reps what days she was not to show up, they
would punch her in and out...
OTOH, the final assembly lines were/are demanding... You have to be
there, every minute is monitored, have to have relief to go to the can,
etc...


When you have to make up for all the lost/stolen (and it's A LOT) time...

Anyway, from what I see the package delivery folks are rode hard and
put away wet...


And yet they stay on, year after year. We have family friends where the
husband just completed his 30th year with UPS...still a delivery driver.
