Steve,
Welcome to Truckingboards. Yes, you can go to a Teamster Union meeting if you want to. If anyone asks, tell them you're an interseted UPSF employee who wants to learn about the Union and how it will benefit you and your co-workers to join. You can also call the Union Hall and ask questions.
STEVE5,exactly what STLDUDE SAID.:wavey: :smilie_132: :cool:

I think this board is just a little one sided. Maybe naaaaaa....
 
The same ones will still be complaining about delay pay, drop-hook,sick days,overtime,bennies. Did I leave any out. I know UPS bought us to change all the above because they are nice. And would like to lose the money that Overnite is not by paying those.:biglaugh:
 
The UPS Freight and Overnite BS

I came to wear brown via Motor Cargo. They Paid us for everything we did and delay time started immediately !!! I really felt appreciated by the management. Now After a few months of the "Overnight way" I feel like a sap. I eat an hour of delay time at every stop and am out about 60.00 per run. Everybody has been saying how good it's gonna be with UPS. I'll believe it when I see it. If UPS Freight stays non union i'm gone.

Welcome to the boards mossbackman. This is not "O" anymore. And this issue with a host of others needs to be addressed and changed. Let others know about the boards. Believe it or not, there is strength in unity. The more people that are informed and educated, the faster we can turn this around and get what we so rightly deserve. Representation.

Why would you want to?:biglaugh:
Mossbackman pretty much explained why I would want to. Giving an hour at the terminal then after that hour its 13. dollars an hour, after my 14 in the hotel getting 10. dollars an hour, all of which we were paid top rate on MC scale, plus they cut 11 miles off my run so thats 22 miles a trip so thats 100 miles total for a 3 and 2 other than that I can't see any reason to.
 
Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to leave yet because I have a feeling there is more drivers that want a better life that a contract can bring. I've come from two companys that took from us a little at a time until I got fed up. One of them is no longer in bussiness, and the other can't hold on to thier drivers some of which have put in apps in over here. I don't want to move again so I am hoping for the best.

becuase masybe he's got a brain/mind of his own,unlike some who need terminal managers,dispatchers, regional company vice presidents,safety men to think for them.maybe he also has respect for himself & coworkers,and cares about them,unlike others from the'opera cliche' you know,the 'I,I,I,me,me,me'now,now,now'group.:nutkick: :tribehasspoken: :smilie_132: maybe he wants to help better working conditions/enviroment:wavey:
