Leftists and crony capitalists, Who work with the government to pick winners and losers. Remember too big to fail? Classical liberalism embraces free markets, civil liberty, and small government

But we aren’t dealing with classical liberals here. More like limousine liberals.

They aren’t really on the left. They just pay lip service to all the social justice stuff because it’s in right now.

This story is really inspiring to read. The incredible hard work these guys went through and the obstacles they had to over come.
The article I read was David vs the Goliath......I know it's not over. Amazon will keep fighting the certification.

It’s not a question of agreeing with every stance. It’s expecting people that claim to support something but then actually don’t.

Is there any chance of you guys organizing?
In less than a year UPS and the Teamsters will be having talks, O'Brien is not talking smack when he states that the "Strike Option" is really on the table. Hoffa and his whole leadership is either gone or rendered useless, another younger generation of do somethings are in charge now.
When the 1 August 2023 deadline approaches just how many Amazon Facilities will be Unionized? If a line is formed those organized buildings will honor the picket lines, as we would theirs. Our Pilot's Union also have a 2023 contract pending, they walked with us back in "97". All that spells out to if there is a work stoppage at UPS all that additional created volume will have to be handled by Fedex and the Postal Service much like in 1997. Today's volume is nowhere close to what it was some 26 years ago for all the common carriers, back in "97" we were out for about 3 weeks and the economy was starting to crash. Just ignore those on this site who claim that our members will cross the picket line, that will not happen. In fact we our scraping the barrel now for warm bodies like every other employer since the pandemic.
Another factor is just how important this oncoming UPS contract will be for every collective bargaining units out there, if the company plays hardball, which I believe that they will not do. In our current political environment and these corporation's continuous profits you may see the reassurance of corrective improvements in our damaged labor rights and overall growth of membership in every collect bargaining units in America and possibly Internationally if there is a work stoppage..
Right now our current CEO is cutting out a lot of fat in the mid level management positions, forcing those high seniority, high salary, heavy UPS stock laden partners to make the decision to get out before the talks begin. I believe that the main sticking point with our contract will be subcontracting and pensions, we have a ton of high seniority members just waiting till this one is settled and will be jumping if they can negotiate real changes in our broken pension benefits.
Our Central States is currently being bailed out thanks to the 54 (BILLION) dollar PGBC forgivable loan, both the Union and Company where jumping for joy over that settlement. Back in "97" that is the real reason we went on Strike, that will not be the factor in 2023. Besides it will be the first Contract for both the new CEO and newer General President of the Teamsters, the main issues our already out there, it will not be a problem to settle this one.
Once O'Brien settles the UPS Contract expect him to go after every major corporation out there, including Fedex. It would benefit UPS too in the long run if they could level the playing field if the Teamsters are successful with their organizing efforts.

The only real chance we have is if FedEx's RLA status is challenged and have the drivers removed from it. Came close in 2010 and would have a good chance with the current administration along with FedEx starting to combine Express and Ground.
