[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 230168, member: 9789"] Amy, Why are you talking about a picket line? When I read about a reference like that, I think of strike ....and I can't imagine why you would be thinking in those terms. Everyone at UPS needs to be thinking positively about the next contract. Our competition is in a much better position to capitalize on UPS if we do not settle this in short order. FedEx, DHL, etc, has/have been building a strong ground network ever since the last strike....all they need now are our packages!!! If we start losing customers we may lose jobs at every level that we may not see again. Some of our employees will be fortunate enough to find work with some of the other non-union carriers at a reduction in pay and benefits but most will have to start over. We all have to work together to prevent the competition from taking our well-deserved market share. In fact, we need to mount aggressive campaigns to take more volume away from that competition so that we can continue to build our company and employees and make UPS one of the best companies to work for. I strongly believe that UPS is one of the few avenues open to lower and middle class folks to fulfill the American dream and offer prosperity to all employees who take advantage of it. I know, I started at the bottom like most of us and I still pinch myself in the morning because it feels like a dream! [/QUOTE]
