[QUOTE="89Percenter, post: 1164027, member: 48353"] I guess I would have to ask, shouldn't other leaders push to reduce the part-time rate, as Local 89 has, in their locals? Don't you think they need to step up for their membership in their locals, rather than Fred, and request waivers from hall? He apparently agrees with our position... maybe you should push for that in your local or head down to hall office and ask him in person. And since when is opposition to a sell-out contract political posturing. You seem to miss the point, as does your god hall, that the membership of Local 89 voted 89% against this piece of crap contract. Maybe, you need to rethink who you support and THEIR POLITICAL futures. hall more or less gave away the right to strike. At this point, where does the IBT end and Company begin? The membership sees the IBT and UPS as the same entity. Who is to blame for that? Not Fred Z...not the membership. hall. What you, and the traitors you support, don't seem to understand, is the movement against this contract, is as grassroots as it gets. This wasn't TDU or any other group. This was the membership being fed up and voicing their anger. The membership expects the company to screw them...now the IBT? This has made the membership hate the IBT with a passion...and that's tragic. Who does that blame fall on? hall and co. And now Hall has worked with UPS to gag that dissent. And how could you even begin to defend this contract. Have you even bothered to read what in it? But if you'd like to discuss the opposition of Local 89 to this concessionary pile, then, again, feel free to contact Fred at Teamsters Local 89. It's listed in the phone book. [/QUOTE]
