the vote will be yes and the union will prevail..a no vote is a vote against your family and yourself don't you owe it to both of you...you deserve the most for what you do...it is dangerous and a very specialized trade or any manager could get in the truck and drive triples all night in the snow.

I agree we should be paid a lot more for the job we do. Union or Nonunion.

That's the idea . If your at work ,OR doing ANYTHING to do with the truck.
If you're waiting for a load at the terminal,
dropping and hooking trailers ,fueling ,waiting on a meet at a relay point,ANYTHING.
You should get paid .Unless say you have to wait for a relay ,you take a lunch break .Then maybe not .I think you get the point though
 
I received the video today. I did bring back a lot of bad memories of the last teamster battle we had. He also made some pretty good points. I like being in the fully funded nonunion pension of UPS.

I believe the vision is still in progress and will get better and better as we grow and prove ourselves.

I still say its much to early we need to let UPS completely take the reins. There is no big hurry. Why would the teamsters be in such a big hurry to unionize us. Think about it...

Skeeter I agree. over time we will "EARN" our way to better wages and benefits. Nothing is "FREE" we have to "EARN" it.
 
Skeeter you need to read the proposal ups has in front of congress.They want to use your pension for future needs of the company,with the projection that they would pay it backin time.last week they had a meeting with congress on pension reform watch out ups is pushing it.
 
Why would they need pension fund money when their raking in over 3 billion dollars a quarter.

Something fishy here?

How much does uniforms,and paint cost these days ?

May the Lord direct your path it works for me.

Ask the guys at enron and worldcom how it worked out for them letting the companies control their pension fund.

If I'm not mistaken Enron folks lost everything because their pension was all in Enron stock. Not a company pension plan like ours.
