[QUOTE="Trucker Clock, post: 5569179, member: 70932"] True, with a caveat. We can't expect to get everything at once. A strike may be necessary, but I hope it would be for the right reasons. Because, if we strike, we will lose a lot of lower seniority employees that will probably never come back. If we're fighting for the unborn, for the new guys, well, there won't be any for a long time. Get rid of PVD's Get rid of 22.4's Get rid of harassment Get rid of any hours over 9.5 Increase pay by 20% over the life of the contract. Increase pay for part timers. (What's the sense in striking to increase starting pay? There will be no new hires for years to come.) To expect everything this contract? Well, I hope it is not just a power play by O'Brien to show UPS who is boss. A little at a time. I've said it before. A strike may be necessary but it is a last resort. This article is by the same guy that predicted a contract by June 30, but his opinion is not wrong in this article. God help us.
