[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1095879, member: 12508"] If UPS strikes, it will be our last chance to gain some measure of respect from the cretins who run Express. This would be the time to finally grow a set, and just slowdown, stop the belt, or whatever else we need to do to stop the abuse. Remember, these are the same people who want to give you 6 or 7 hours per day, but now want you to work 14 because it suits [I]their [/I]needs and will fill the corporate coffers with cash. Screw them. If Brown goes out, we need to stage a sickout and get something back from these bastards. Make no mistake...they absolutely are bastards, and they don't give a crap about us. In the new Express paradigm, they will do just fine...we will not. They are already making contingency plans for a possible UPS strike, and anxiously awaiting all of that tasty volume. Don't help them out, because none of the profit will find it's way to you. You'll work 14 hours a day..and get [B]NOTHING, [/B]except some cursory BZ talk on the next [I]Frontline [/I]saying how we all pulled together" blah, blah, effing blah. They will get bonuses, even if they completely screw it up, because they are the "stars" and we are the janitors. As long as we do nothing, they will keep right on taking and taking and taking. Hopefully, enough people have had enough and won't cooperate this time. Screw you, Smith. [/QUOTE]
