I would be shocked if there was a live unscripted Q&A session involving Hoffa. I'll be surprised if he even shows up.

My guess is that a nationwide organizing drive at FedEx and Conway would be too expensive a risk for Hoffa and co.at this time. The smart bet is for the IBT to sit back and wait to see if the drivers at those local barns are really serious and committed to joining the Teamsters. I'm sure Tyson and the freight division are co-ordinating the local organizing behind the scene. But they will probably wait to see if the drivers don't cave in to the company's union busting pressure and are actually serious about joining on an individual terminal basis. Then when the time is right the union will put on a full court press looking for the slam dunk.

By reading some of the threads on TB and talking to a couple of friends I believe the time is right. I believe that the drivers have had enough and are ready to organize. I believe that certain anti union posters on this site are management and or shills paid to discourage the union movement at FedEx and Conway....... I have tried to correct false statements and misleading posts only to be attacked personally in violation of the rules................................I wish the workers the best in this effort.
 
I have been off work for surgery and TeamCare has paid everything without hesitation. What problems are you guys having??
 
Hoffa and hall are a joke there part of what's wrong with the union look at pat flynns deal and the nepotism and Hoffa putting coli in charge of trusteeship of local 710 which I believe coli had got caught stealing or something ibt and teamsters that are are leaders are jokes ...crooks takeing care of there own and family relatives and the good old boy network are a joke
 
I want to encourage all who can to attend the Local 728 meeting. Hoffa needs to be peppered with hard questions; not bitched at, but peppered with hard questions. In my not-very-humble opinion, Hoffa and company have sold us down the river. Their performance has been abysmal; their representation of us even worse. We are grossly underpaid for what we do (provided you are doing your job and not "milking the pooch").
If the Union leadership isn't going to do their job, get the %$#@ out!! If the corporate management isn't going to improve the company, get the %$$# out! I for one am sick and tired of the lies, the arrogance, and the inaction to get this company on the right track. Welch, Lilly, Skarka, Hawkins, Hoffa, Johnson and Hall are doing little more than giving us "lip service." It's time we took charge!

I would love to see it but they will not let that happen.
 
They are not Teamsters and do not report back to Hoffa and company, that would be against SEC regulations.

The international has the contracted right to name 2 members to the board all that means is they can select people that they feel will be in our best interest nothing more.

The board of directors of any corporation has a fiduciary duty to the shareholders and can be sued for failure in that regard. That is the law. They must act in the best interests of the shareholders, i.e., the owners.
