[QUOTE="scratch, post: 89773, member: 1674"] More, it was like this, UPS could only negotiate directly with the Teamsters, not to its own employees. UPS knew what kind of shape the pension plans were in or were projected to be in the future. Like I have posted before, the IBT is only going to do what is in its best interest as a whole, not what is best for the particular group of its members it is bargaining for. I was at that Strike Authorization meeting, and only one sentence was mentioned regarding the pension funds. It was something like "and the company wants to take over your pension so it can do away with it like it wants too". I feel like we were misled. There is no way the Teamsters will give up control of billions of dollars in pension funds, that is the only power it has over its members. And UPS is its cash cow. [/QUOTE]
