I will also tell that i worked as teamster for 18 years and WAS sold out by the union when the company i worked for bought are nonunion competion and 35 of us were shown the door .The wonderful leadership would only tell us if we fight we may have trouble with other locals so just deal with it and SAID they would help place us in the local well it's been over 4 years now and i'm still waiting for the placement.
I do agree if not for The UNION i would not some of what i have but also know the Union needs do a lot of HOUSE cleaning and reorgination . Plus most of the membership would do much better to stop talking DOWN to people they wish to organize it only turns them off.
Finally having worked both sides of the fence I am Embarrassed to see how many parties have acted in this debate both Childish and down right arrogant.
Take my opionions for what you will and flame if you must but these our my opionions without insult or name calling

nice post tell me what the union really is... they are trying to get my barn to go union but they just tell us lies and nobody but the ones that believe the lies want it. If they do vote it in I must join or go find a new job(cailif law) and that aint right:Suicide:

That is an outright lie, you post stupid, ignorant, deliberate lies & that makes you a liar. As far as you being a clown well that part is obvious & if I remember your post right you are pretty good at "jacking off" too....

Here are a couple of your deliberate lies

2631 i just called your local.. and I got some good INFO on your "retirement"package... when you stop working and start getting pension payments.. you will still be a teamster, right? you know the answer to that, because you know everything. being a member means paying dues,,, I have no reason to lie.... read it again... I have no reason to lie... maybe you can bust off a phone call yourself... then tell me i got cred...

Those were deliberate lies & every union member knows it. We don't pay dues in order to collect our pensions & no one from local 560 would ever tell you that we do......You had every reason to lie because you were trying to keep your coworkers at Reddaway from voting in the union.

How can it be the end of the debate when it isn't even the issue we were debating? The only thing that you have brought to this thread is is a couple of ignorant posts bashing the Unions..... Overtime pay isn't a union issue.

Now would you like to post your opinion on the issue of the "bottom feeding" companies not paying their hourly employee overtime?

Just in off of the headline news. The Overnite drivers were just saved from that long strike. Some outfit by the name of UPS just bought them. There is a dirty rumor going around that they may join some " stinking union"..... If you hear anymore about it, keep me informed.

Hey, will you guys do me a favor & nobody tell usf523 that my last post was a lie. If he finds out that I lied to him then he will say that I am a liar........Just like his posts are.

This thread has gotten so far off topic and clouded that i cant tell when people are being serious or sarcastic anymore. Ups bought Overnite how long ago now? seems like its got to be a year now.

My post (2631) was an attempt at sarcasm. usf523's post appears to have been a serious off topic attempt at union bashing.
