- More than 200 workers will soon be out of a job when UPS closes day sorting operations at its New Stanton facility in just under two months. KDKA-TV's Lauren Linder reports.
Unexpected consequences of bad decisions, thanks teamsters.

GOOOOO Teamsters!!! Big raises at the expense of others.. Great job..
Blame the union and not the capitalists. Always the workers fault no matter what.
@@Omen465 Obviously, you have never had to live within a budget.. Let me get my crayons so you might understand.. So if little Johnny get 2 dollars for doing the dishes how many dollar can he spend at the store.. (Hint it's not 5)
Unfortunately I feel that todays American workers are under the foot of Wall Street investors. Wall Street investors dump their shares if they are not seeing the profits they want. In other words if investors are forced to have 10-20 million dollar yachts instead of 100-500 million dollar yachts they dump the shares of those companies. Kinda sad and greedy. Thoughts?
Hey @ tomwillis9051 you must be management because you sound really DUMB have ever worked at UPS ??? it’s damm hard work.I’ve been there for 29 years.When I started there it was $8.00 dollars an hour and now it’s $21.00 an hour .I’ve EARNED EVERY PENNY OF MY RAISE.The CEO of the company earns nearly $20 million dollars with all of the stock options & incentive bonuses & her base salary is $ 1.5 million dollars which means most of that compensation is FLUFF !!! Fluff off the backs of hard working Teamsters .What really going on is the move to automated buildings. They have to justify the cost by pulling volume out of some buildings either by reducing hours of labor or getting rid of entire shifts then putting that work into automated buildings .So when the CEO literally says she has to pay for that contract with the Teamsters in an interview SHE CAN PAY FOR IT BY GIVING BACK SOME OF HER BIG COMPENSATION PACKAGE SHE GETS EVERY YEAR !!! But I guess in your mind BIG RAISES FOR A CEO IS OK BECAUSE THATS CAPITALISM but BIG RAISES FOR REGULAR WORKING STIFFS IS GREED ????
GET OUT OF HERE WITH YOUR NONSENSE !!!
😊Have a good Sunday
@@howardj602 You funny guy.. With the world tearing itself apart and our political climate what it is.. I am scared to give you an outlook for the next 10 months much less 10 years.. But live within your means and plan accordingly and you'll be ok too..
Got to pay for that raise
Bingo. Workers think they can demand more money and the big companies will bend over backwards.
Sorry to hear these people are joining the unemployment lines with me and my former teamster members from Yellow
I'm assuming that nobody will hire you because you worked for a Union shop ??
@@gregorylyon1004 perhaps, union jobs are few and far between in my area, combine that with a tanking economy and even non union carriers aren’t doing much hiring
@@gregorylyon1004exactly
I came from Yellow just to find out that UPS is laying people off too 😁
Joe Biden Good, orangeman badd, vote Biden again and you will be mandatory required to house illegal aliens or face triple property taxes.
They’re getting ready to roll out A.I. !
Actually, it was the contract they negotiated. 175k for a driver? Lol
AI took mah jerb!
As a laid off UPSER. The contract negotiations did this
I am sorry you lost your job, however you are correct.
When Bloomberg announced the contracts... I knew it was over.
The sad thing is how many "part time" workers this company uses. Most of these people needed a second job to get by anyhow.
more prodcution pay 2 people 4 hours each than paying 2 person full 8 hours
And another shop is getting shut down April 1st. I believe it's up north. Its a trailer and truck repair shop and delivery shop being shut down
so if UPS needs to fix a trailer, they're gonna go see an outside vendor, isn't it what they say they're gonna get rid of ?
@@MrGene1976 that would be less money on ups part. Than paying all these workers all that money and benefits. Outside vendor, just get paid for their services and that's it. No vacation, sick or pay increase needed
@@Spooky_Greggthis makes me wonder why were they lying in a statement about laying off only non-union workers and getting rid of contractors. We have dozen line-haul drivers layed off about 2 weeks ago at our terminal. At the same time, they were doing driving tests for new hires....
Everything that UPS owns is on wheels or maybe loaded in their trailers to move . Their docks , shop buildings , and offices are not much more than pole barns . The bean counters supply freight flow information to the higher ups , they make the decisions .
workers get the blame of course but i actually work there. management decisions be piss poor at best. we lost accounts because UPS would rather kill a route, now nobody can make it over there. its more but outsiders can keep guessing
Yep
I lucky I retired from UPS 15 years ago. The workers that remain will have to work much harder now.
More for me and less for thee
Dude, it was a doomed contract. 175k annually for drivers?
Leave as soon as you can get in line for jobs before everyone else does
I’m kind of surprised on this location
Near 70/76/79
Right next to the Turnpike. Exactly why its not closing. Perfect location.
theres more to come im sure, atleast amazon will maybe gain some package drivers that MIGHT know what they are doing and not be lazy . a 5 lb package is to heavy for them to walk 25 ft..
Damn this low volume killing ups morale
That's a real shame, they're closing the wrong one... They should be closing the one in Zeleinople instead, I've had package delays 4 no reason from there but not from New stanton, New Stanton shouldn't close, this is a real shame, good luck to them
It's not closing..
Part-time manager? I've never heard of a part-time manager. Who would accept that kind of position?
They are babysitting,because if they do labor their coworker supervisors will rat them out for points
I don't get it. UPS get shit loads of packages and always deliver late as hell. So the answer is to get rid of workers?
Because they have a certain bottom line to get too for their stockholders. By the way, I don’t work for this company. We demand the govt make them pay us more. Ok. More pay and more lay offs.
Just filed a claim with AG they are shit
Closing their "day sort" NOT the entire building !
False reporting...
If you listen the reporter. Said the day sort...
The reporter said nothing about the entire building.
All of them are feeling it not just ups
This is sad news, but this is what UPS and other big companies do to their employees
Don’t leave out the govt. they get in office and makes multimillions on kick backs at the backs of American citizens.
But the union bosses that tried to hold the company hostage still have their jobs. I am a believer if your job requires joining a union you need to find another line of work. Union bosses are like financial advisors. They will keep getting paid whether their decisions benefit you or not.
UPS recently announced discriminatiatory policies against the firearms industry and now they can't afford overpaid union employees? #GoWokeGoBroke
This is another big blow to the union. Corporate is cutting cost and raising customers prices is purely greed. Teamsters ,Sean and fred has to keep fighting against corporate greed.
You mean unskilled labor greed.
@@Therealdeal_23 it's mind blowing to think that once before a company board we're once workers. Now shareholders and investors are unskilled labor.
If there are no boxes, then who is paying the workers??
@@thedude5040 if there are no boxes, no work and then corporate America loses as the working consumers do. They are not that crazy , but to stress a point to their employees the employer will cause a divide not just between the workers of its company but also the every day consumers. As you can see by comments that are made by others. Big corporations always have a plan for their working class to eventually make us obsolete.
@howardj602 No I mean, all of the sorters, drivers, workers are unskilled labor doesn't require a degree, certification, certificate, special training...nothing but a HS diploma and if I drive the big truck a CDL and yet yall stupid MG went on strike demanding more when you were already overpaid unskilled labor
Sure hope none of those laid off go parcel.
I had a cousin who worked for UPS before the days of smart phones and GPS tracking devices,he used to spend hours at my residence when he was in the area of my residence hanging out with his aunt who was my mother!! This was in the late 70’s-through the 1980’s and I remember him telling us that the days when GPS tracking and Smart phones would come out,UPS would find out that they didn’t need the employees as much as what they hired and there would be cutbacks!!
4hrs a day and you wanna retire
Remain calm, the Teamster President will not be affected.
That’s what you pay union dues for. And considering that hourly rates are above the national average, would imagine that most employees were saving for a rainy day. But, if not keeping up with world financial news, this is not a surprise at all. It was/is actually a wake up call to in fact have been preparing right after COVID.
Go Teamsters!
What was the whole point of being on strike.? Grievances,yet being on a government shutdown in 2018;grants aint adding up, disability enabled.
Bidenomics
has nothing to do with volume, it's because automation is taking jobs.
I'm glad I don't have to work for a living anymore 45 years done now.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉💰💰💰💰💰💰💰🎣🎣🎣🎣
How's that employee strong arm strike working out now??
Biden told Pennsylvania " good union jobs", they believe Senile Joe. 😂
Who wrote the letter? DEI hire?
You know that the union did negotiate that w the raises
ups need to find money somewhere to pay 175k for the drivers
Local 200 & 745
you voted this administration in... you reap what you sow....keep voting democratic......
Wb them creating more jobs? 🤔
Big mistake they need more not less employees 😏🤔😥
Where do you think the $ will come from to pay the union drivers $ 150,000 to $ 170,000 a year?
@@bobroberts2371
Without rates increased
Nowhere
@@bobroberts2371my paycheck is 800
Did the union fee go up since driver pay did.im talking for part time package handlers,think it was 30.00 a week last time I checked in illinois
150 k a year to bring a box up to the house . How are these unemployment checks sounding???
If that what you think that’s all it takes I have a bridge to sell yea
Buy yourself a dictionary and stay away from selling bridges
You really believe that 150k propaganda 90% of drivers don’t even come close to that do your research first before throwing fake numbers out there
@@charliebuck93yeah, its only 8 hrs now for the full-timers
Average 420 a week
I thought that UPS historic strike and victory fixed everything maybe demanding more and more and more has consequences
what strike
Teamsters win again! 😁
This is the result of the union fighting for higher wages and thinking they’re more valuable than they are. They priced themselves right out of jobs. Great job
DUMMM REALLY DUUUUM STATEMENT !!!
you can get an AI to audit finances
I hear there maybe some good mechanics coming across the border, now is the time to hire cheap labor. They will work for peanuts just to get paid under the table. No bothersome taxes to pay and all that shit.
This makes me inclined to never use UPS again!
Why??? UPS cannot afford to pay the big Union wages in a freight recession
@@gregorylyon1004 just brings out bad memories of my late father's union struggle as a kid. The union wants you to strike but does nothing financially to help its members while striking. (Money for food, bills, etc.) But those union dues sure do come out of that paycheck religiously! Now they want to have massive layoffs? Let's see what their union does for its members now. Have a great day dear!
Why ? It's not ups fault it's the clowns in the Whitehouse. You do understand our economy is being crashed purposely.
@amycovey6595 then don't blame ups blame the unions, eventually you can strike yourself out of a job
@@markwilliams4525 I know of that personally as a child so yep I am not a big fan of unions! Have a great day dear!
ups gone yellow soo sad
Yellow wasn't investing in it's business
Brown gone Yellow™
@@dchawk81 thats a good 👕 theme
You can blame the union for all of this mess.
As a union worker, it’s clear that the unions have become exactly what they claim they wouldn’t be, another corporation now just looking to make as much money off of as many company employees as possible.
Ur regarded
Maybe FedEx is hiring.
fedex is downsizing too. stop with unions are hurting these billion dollar corp.
, Lauren out the with the Big Rigs , & her with Big Girl pants on !❤❤

The letter says "Use"..
Same old story 😴 I learned in life to be on my own
This will happen more on UPS and FedEX. Amazon will take over shipping mail companies like UPS and FedEX. You guys see Amazon have their own cargo planes and delivery trucks. That’s the reason why these 2 companies will bankrupt….
Was just saying this they pay peanuts $25 an hour for driving a tractor trailer is bogus!!!
Amazon is not delivering for businesses, not sure if they even pick up. A little different here
@Freddyboy Amazon does not do what UPS or FedEx does. And your wrong about the 2 companies not having all of that . Airplanes, traintrailers, investment in cargo ships that is nothing new to them. What is new is how Amazon don't even make pickups? That is not going to work without the big 2 research it they have been in the packaging club a long time. Amazon still has a lot to learn about P&D Amazon has a great story however they will not survive without them.
Amazon uses Fedex ground business model they contract everything
BIG RAISE = BIG LAYOFF, LMFAO, PEOPLE ARE SO STUPID!!
That and Bidenomics killing the economy
U got that right😐
Bidenomics !
@@Glansful yup
UPS planning this for years. New automated hubs needing fewer workers opening and closing out dated hubs
Well I mean that’s good for me cuz I can get another round of unemployment benefit’s if I get hit at ups.. I’m already receiving unemployment benefit’s😅 from yellow
Bidennomics.
Ups did that, so tgey can't pay these workers a pension.
Thanks to unions, they are to blame for these layoffs, it was bad timing to redo the contract and ups is getting less money, so of course they will cut jobs. Give it some time, the autoworkers will be next.
The Power of the union
Did you UPS workers really think that yall were going to get that big raise and everyone keep thier jobs???? Keep paying the union fees to put you out of work.
Don’t blame the union blame the greedy shareholders and ceo that are making hundreds of millions a year for not doing shit it’s not the unions or the workers fault and if you feel it is your the problem
@@charliebuck93 So why are YOU not working at a CEO and giving 90 % of your salary to the poor workers? Just think, this is the most direct route to equalizing pay Remember, Greedy person = anyone that has more $ than you. Greedy person = what someone with less $ calls YOU.
@@charliebuck93 I can see them making some investments in the new equipment and technology, not sure if its good enough though to compete with Amazon
@charliebuck93 When you went on strike it rubbed people the wrong way...in the middle of a recession you went on strike, 1st you are unskilled labor and over paid. When I order I make sure NOT to choose UPS to ship I on purpose choose the USPS or FedEx even if they are higher. FU the union
Unfortunately that is what unions do
Don’t take it personally it’s just business
Right
Pfft
Unions have to go
Who still thinks these Corporations are loyal?😅 Gen Z's starting to look smarter day by day in 2024😂😂😂
this is tha unions fault 100 percent
UPS planning this for years. New automated hubs needing fewer workers opening and closing outdated facilities
@@busterbrown1686 if thats tha excuse u want to believe lol....even if that is tha case the unions greed at tha top deff accelerated tha timing of this.
The Teamsters and all Union are a thing of the past. Be careful what you ask for; union officials are not your friends anymore 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Thank the Union and Joe Biden!
Thank the job creator Joe biden man of the UNION 🤣🤣
This is what they voted for. Being greedy.
Strike again !!!! Ask for more $$$$$ !!!! There is always a repercussion to some people always wanting more !!!!!
nobody went on strike
Union Greed....they have this coming....they went on strike a few months back and got a hefty raise....what did they expect?
nobody went on strike you should educate yourself before you post
Good over paid union workers
