UPS automation used to cut jobs, endanger workers at Lonestar hub in Arlington Texas ( fightbacknews.org )

Arlington, TX – Plans are moving forward for UPS to automate much of the work at its Lonestar Hub. UPS has framed the automation push as “Modernization” and has favored a “Better, Not Bigger” policy which means reducing overall volume while increasing profits for the company.

Amazon laying off 14,000 corporate jobs while spending $10,000,000,000 on each new data centers.

UPS cutting 48,000 jobs this year while making a $21,000,000,000 revenue.

But yeah, minimum wage, maternity leaves, unions and workers' rights in general are definitely why business can't create more jobs. /s

I żeby nie było że tylko na Pocztę polska narzekam. Czekałem na przesyłkę z Korei Płd. W końcu pojawiła się w Holandii, przyjechała do Polski ale z opóźnieniem, więc nie mogłem być w domu. w apce UPS zaznaczyłem konkretny punkt odbioru (czynny do 21:00) i paczka została przekierowana... w inne miejsce w mieście i do punktu pracującego 17. Nosz kłerwa... Dobrze, że chociaż niezmiażdżona.

Hej fedisie!

Bratu się UPS skończył w biurze. Tak się skończył, ze wymiana aku nie jest opcją i trzeba kupić nowy. Jest jakiś ranking marek tych ustrojstw? Kiedyś kupowało się APC i z głowy, to nadal jest ten wybór?

Bundesnetzagentur: So viele Beschwerden über die Post wie noch nie

Das Paket zerbeult im Hausflur vorfinden oder gar dem Paketzusteller nachlaufen müssen: Verbraucher haben sich noch nie so häufig über die Deutsche Post und ihre Wettbewerber beschwert wie im ersten Halbjahr 2025.

@tagesschau
Hab ich schon mindestens 3x bei erlebt: Ein Paket wird angekündigt, man sitz zuhause vor dem Rechner und verfolgt es per "Live-Tracking" bis ca. 3 Zulieferpunkte bis zum Haus – dann wird die Zustellung plötzlich abgebrochen und man darf das Paket in der nächsten (oder übernächsten) Filiale abholen.
Aber immer noch besser als – die verschlampern das Paket einfach tagelang in einer Zustellbasis und stellen es dann jemand anderem in einer völlig anderen Stadt zu.

Hello DuckDuckFedi, we are looking for a UPS for our little home server collections, would you have some recommendations? :dragn_heart: :boosts_ok:

It should be able to communicate on the network that it is running on battery

Thank you!

every damn time

Tweet thread: Molly White @molly0xFFF 37m and when you decide to defund libraries because "people who can afford it can just buy the books", you restrict access to those who can't afford it Ken Herman @kherman 21m How about if we use those tax dollars to buy the books for those who can't afford them? Molly White @molly0xFFF congratulations! you have just invented libraries

Hunderttausende Beschwerden über die Post - mehr als bislang bekannt

Briefe und Pakete, die zu spät, beschädigt oder gar nicht ankommen: Bei der Post führt dies zu einer großen Zahl von Beschwerden. Mit Blick auf den gesamten Paket- und Briefverkehr ist der Anteil jedoch verschwindend gering.

Look, I'm sure most of you have seen my posts about my serious problems with , so I'd normally be happy to see them getting negative attention, but there is no logical reason to mention UPS in the headline of this story. He was on is way to work, he wasn't in a UPS vehicle.

When you have to check with every mail order company to ensure they can ship without using because every UPS package arrives at our door covered in toxic cigarette smoke making my family sick. UPS will not admit there is a problem, or fix it.

It has been over a year since I first let UPS know that every package they delivered was covered in toxic cigarette smoke, making my family physically sick.

not only have they not fixed the problem, but 3 days ago I saw that a package was being sent to us via UPS and I contacted them to return the package to sender.

They did not.

It just arrived, you guessed it, reeking of toxic cigarette smoke.

I left it outside and will have to now return the box tomorrow.

is the worst company!

We do our best not to get packages delivered by , bc for almost a year now every package they deliver is covered in cigarette smoke, making my family sick, & ruining medical equipment. We've gone so far as to pay out of pocket for some medical equipment because the only insurance approved company will only deliver via UPS.

But after several months of not getting packages from UPS, our luck ran out, and my family got physically sick from it again.

UPS does not care about customers
