Union jobs provide economic and class advancement over generations. That's why billionaires and their Republican minions are so desperate to kill them.
Just took delivery of a UPS for my home office.
In a pleasing symmetry it was delivered by UPS.

I am looking into a good solution for shipping internationally. Specifically, I'm looking to ship a book from USA to Uganda.
I'm not looking to start a subscription service. I'm just looking to ship one book.
I've looked into 3 options:
- FedEx: website breaks, gives no price. I'm told FedEx has high rates.
- UPS: website tells me ~$150 minimum.
- USPS: website tells me ~$45 minimum.
Figured I'd ask here to see if anyone knows of a good method of shipping a book-sized object from USA to Uganda.
#UPS en 3 mails depuis ce matin :
8h40 : un colis vous sera remis aujourd'hui entre 9h15 et 13h15 !
10h27 : votre colis arrive ! entre 9h30 et 11h30 ( )
11h50 : Nous livrerons aujourd’hui, mais un peu plus tard que prévu.
Ben heureusement que je suis au boulot et pas à attendre sur le pas de la porte...
hey ! looking for experiences on #UPS to be #rack ed, like 1/2U, integration in #librenms (so #snmp and #linux support) for 2x #Arista 7050 , a server, a management oobm switch ( 2960 ) and some small stuff. Im aiming at durability and option to swap batteries, possibly ethernet for mgmt.
I'm looking for alternatives to APC, would Eaton be a good option ? Other ideas ?

@sebsauvage me rappelle #UPS qui voulait que je créé un compte pour modifier l'adresse de livraison d'un colis ><
Et j'ai beaucoup aimé la dernière de #chronopost qui a décidé sans vraiment me prévenir que mon colis serait a l'agence a 10 bornes de chez plutôt que la où j'ai demandé :/
While I'm on about FedEx, it's worth noting that while they appear to be similar to UPS, there are major differences. Ones you --and your ethical wallets-- should be aware of.
Most of the UPS workforce is unionized. UPS Teamsters are one of the largest unions in the US.
OTOH, the only union worth noting at FedEx is their aircraft pilots. Deliveries are via independent contractors. FedEx also use hacks to skirt DOT rules and reporting.... Just like Amazon.
If you can, pick UPS over FedEx.

Nå for SYV da. Jeg har lige opdaget, at Anders Malling, ophavsmanden til standardværket "Dansk salmehistorie", var tydeligt og overbevist nazist i 1930'erne.
Han forlod dog partiet i 1940, og det kan ikke ses på værket, der er senere, så vidt jeg har kunnet registerere.
Jeg synes altid, jeg snubler over nazister i mit faglige arbejde. Der er mindst to tydelige nazister blandt genreforskerne og nu så altså også Malling.

And it begins. Who's gonna handle Amazon packages now? Is this the end of free shipping? They sure twist to not blame the trade war.
UPS to cut 20,000 jobs, close 70 facilities as it reduces amount of Amazon shipments it handles

More pain for American workers as the economy continues steep decline - CBS reported that #UPS announced that it plans to reduce its #workforce by 20,000 employees and close 73 facilities. The reduction of 20,000 employees represents 4% of the company's workforce. #Amazon is UPS' largest partner. #economy #economics #trump #project2025 #maga #tariffs
"United Parcel Service on Tuesday said it would slash 20,000 jobs and shut 73 facilities...
"The move comes as Trump's aggressive trade policies have begun slowing economic growth and increasing expectations for a possible recession.
"'The world hasn't been faced with such enormous potential impacts to trade in more than 100 years,' CEO Carol Tome said on the company's earnings call."

je sais pas si je vais réussir à trouver ce que je cherche sur le site d' #UPS avant que le colis n'arrive... Leurs livreurs sont légendaires mais parce que personne a vu leurs devs en fait...
