[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 1277229, member: 14596"] Only 40 drivers? I thought Clarksville was a larger center than that. :) I have no knowledge of your center, so I will have to take your word for it. And I hope you are being accurate, but I myself cannot help being skeptical of your claim. I agree wholeheartedly that we plural are in control, that is the nature of a hierarchy. It is why we have a greater responsibility, and also why as I mentioned earlier, I have a greater contempt for the attitudes of my partners who fall into the us vs them and them are evil mindset than I do the hourly. Ironically, the work teams UPS tried so many years ago were an effort to wrest some of that control away from front line management and put it in your hands. Had you realized that back then, you may have had a greater desire to participate? Who knows what might have happened, though I have no doubt it would have likely failed anyway. Those front line management did not want it to succeed anymore than the IBT did. The circling of wagons as you call it, is exactly what the IBT wants, as it generates more loyalty among the rank and file. [/QUOTE]
