Slave,
You might as well highlight everything you just said and hit delete!
How do you know there is no support in the system for them? Are you a driver that get to other terminals to get all of these facts system wide? Nobody is not going to know anything until Indianapolis has there contract written up.
Once that is done, then everyone who wants representation will be added to the RIGHT BANDWAGON!:1036316054:

Hey . I work in the largest HUB in the UPS FREIGHT system. I know more than you do. The IBT might get some small service centers. But they cant get a majority vote at a big hub.Just sit back and watch this thing unfold, IT'S GONNA GET GOOD!!:butt kiss:

You mean to tell me, people are smarter because of the size of the terminal there from?

AS far as "its gonna get good", it sounds like you thrive on us being separated,and at odds with each other.

I hope it doesn't go your way nospin...er... I mean HRSslave.

Steve5,
That's why I let it go, you put it quite well.
When I read that, I knew it was a :censored2: I was dealing with. No discussion, just outbursts of how big it's terminal is.

You really don't have a clue as to how someone is going to vote no matter what the person says. Trust is an issue and just because someone says that they will vote no doe's not mean thats what they will secretly vote. The real deal will come out in secret votes.

Appearantly he did not read post 17 and 18, and you know what they say, ignorence is bliss. We all stay and contact and again the halls back up this statement, just go ask.:smilie_132: Besides, we allready have 1 hub on our side. And he is rite when he say's it's going to get good, when they see the contract from the teamsters first, and if it is a good one, we shall see who the winner is.

All of the UPSF workers should read this line and really think about it. This apwa plant who is surely not a worker among you refers to "KC falling" and then says that "other hubs will fall".....this is very revealing. I would have said "When KC rises up the other hubs will rise up too"......to fall is a negative connotation, not a positive one. To refer to a potential victory as a terminal "falling" isn't a Union term. Only Mgmt. would like to see a "fall".....they may have, through a Freudian slip, revealed their true nature. This should not be taken lightly....any real Union man wouldn't have said it like that.

Well, if this man is MGNT. he has a surprise comming, I for one do not want to be caught up in a fruedian slip, If hoffa does'nt back us up in new and upcomming union he mite get caught up in a slip.

After all, we will be labeled as the new tyrant's in the freight industy for voting in a union..
 
HRS-SLAVE said:
Once KC falls, and all the other hubs fall like dominos. Maybe ups freight will be a better place to work The IBT sure doesn't have the support at the big hubs. If you want a union and change you better pick the APWA:smilie_132:

My friend u r sooooooo mis informed:smilie_132:

All of the terminals in the northeast, and hugnlug and teamster 251 can agree, have sighned enough cards to be teamsters tomorrow, except 1 terminal and they have the 51% allready yesterday. We all stay in contact. And the halls are rite behind us.:smilie_132: You are also not talking to the rite northeast drivers then, try the other ones. When a contract falls with INdy, we will be the first to go.

I know of 4 terminals in the greater eastern New england area that are chomping at the bit (no pun intended) to bring in the Horses
 
hugnlug said:
Welcome HRS-SLAVE to truckingboards. KC won't fall, and neither will any other barn in the system!!! Why? Because who in there right mind would want to take a chance on a couple guys who claim to be a "union" and have yet to negotiate there first company contract. PM me so I can give you my email and you can send me the $150 "initiation" fee. I'm stating my own union!!! You trust me......don't you?

Now hold on a second,, I need his money for my NEW UNION, :hysterical:
 
Apostolic said:
The only thing I can see with this bandwagon,is the APWA is hitching their horse to the back of this wagon,and the Teamsters have their team of horses hitched to the front.
We UPS Freight workers are already on this wagon,waiting for the split to happen with all of these horses pulling against each other.

U make a good point ,, But u forgot one thing, At least with the teamsters we r at the table getting this thing close to being ***** up. STAY FOCUSED:1036316054:
 
elvis said:
BINGO! You nailed it. Great point. Just like we have all been saying. The apwa is not a "UNION AT ALL". Now put on your IBT t-shirt an join the winning team. Live better, vote IBT!!!!

I believe we should stay FOCUSED.:1036316054:

That would be like a rhino wrestling an ant.....This all seems stupid to me....I understand people not being happy with the way things were handled before by the IBT or how slow things are coming along....But getting all wound up by something that does not have any backing other than empty promises....No track record ....Nothing.....I don't get it!

I will AGREE with that,,:1036316054:

Better hit those history books again slaveboy.

Hoffa Sr started in Detriot with and already established local. Local 299. Money and power were never in short supply

The IBT was already a power house. Thanks to men like it founder Shea and Dan Tobin the second prez.

Hoffa's personaility and self imposed power made him the man he became, as well as the leader of the most powerful and richest union ever.

The IBT wasn't even started from scratch. It was a merger of two unions in 1905.

Hoffa sr may have started with two men by his side in Local 299, but those two men were the only the tip of the iceberg that Hoffa had as followers from his days as the leader of the Strawberry Boys.

Get you facts straight slaveboy
