First, in the intrests of full disclosure, I'm a Roadway p&d driver in New York City.
That said, here are some alternative explainations for why management is acting stupid:
(1) UPS may have told them, even with a union contract, that managment still has its prerogatives and that it might be a good idea to begin asserting those rights to command and run the company. Now if you give some guys the suggestion of an inch, they will take an actual mile. So you might have witnessed some managers misinterpreting and going overboard.
(2) If these managers are old Overnite managers they may be venting.
(3) Someone may have told them that their bonuses will suffer. (More Venting)
(4) Here's one that probably gives more credit than is due. They might have resoned that more compensation and benefits to the employees means more for them.
Anyway, just some food for thought.
Well to be honest it is not that impractical to think that, as a matter of fact it is probably the way to get the reighns a little tighter.
