Your union bulletin board should have info on meetings. If you direct newbies to a few meetings and shake the BA's tree, you might start something.

Every Upser EARNS their benefits. If it were up to Ups there would be none. You are more than likely a someone who tried driving and after a few weeks put in a letter to Mgnt because you could not hack it. Not rocket science huh? Well alot of people try and fail, I wonder why? If it's that easy then there would be no turnover I would assume..You earn every penny busting your tail for yrs while the higher ups at their meetings and golf outings are planning more ways to try to squeeze another penny for the shareholders with no regard to the ones on the front lines..You are Pathetic!!

Why You ASS. I was a DRIVER and proud of it for UPS for 33+ years. How dare you. I really don't think you know what you are talking about here. Full Time Drivers worked hard for the recent contract. Perhaps you should learn what is true and what isn't before your idiotic statements!!

All I hear is a bunch of ftmers and retirees crying, waaaaahhh. Don't like it? Get a new job. Retirees, don't like it? Should have planned your retirement better. Boo hoo. Sucks when the shoes on the other foot. Suck it up cupcakes

With 21 posts you are either A Stooge already or a management wannabe doing what the Brain trusts in Atlanta tell you to do now that contract time is near. I am sure your shoes are Stilettos

Looks like you are replying to The Milkman but probably not your intent.

When I first started driving three or four of us on our way out to our routes would stop before we started work. Most people don't know you are allowed a 15 minute break before you even deliver your first stop. The restaurant was a Bagelsmith chain. We ate people like you for a snack!
I Don't Know Where Your From But In Northern Cali
Under The Company Plan Right Now You Could Retire And You And Your Family Would Pay Only Fifty Bucks A Month For Benefits After You Retire
But Under This New Contract As Of 1-1-14, They Will Not Give You Any Benefits After You Retire
They Said Let Medicare Take Care Of You Or You Can Pay 300 A Month By 2016 With Obama Care
So The More Logical Thing To Do Is Vote No On The Contract
Cause I Did Make Over 100G The Last Couple Of Years And I Still Have A Hard Time With Cost
Just Image When I Retire Having To Pay 300 A Month
If I Make It To 35 Yrs And Receive 3500 A Month Before Taxes I Couldn't And I Wouldn't Get Max

Annoy a liberal today. Hit them with facts.
Dude, nobody is messing with our retirement. Sounds to me like you have alot of sour grapes toward UPS and you just want to take it out on us teamsters. Good luck with that.

The required footwear is low cut boots, tried wearing stilettos once but I was sent home
I'm just a hard working ptmer on the sort isle too stupid to cut his losses and quit. Fed up of picking up the slack for lazy protected union workers while seeing others taken advantage of. I share my opinion on this forum and almost immediately am attacked by the full-time work force. I'm just returning the favor. Have a great day my three day weekend just started

what is so frustrating to us NO voters is the incredible apathy we are encountering with our co-workers about this TA. many people just see the so-called raises ( don't even cover COLA ) and that's it.
they don't want to look down the road to their own retirements and most are too young to worry about healthcare costs.
it's very frustrating to have your life and future in the hands of people who don't care.

It would appear you've done a bit more than just "share your worthless opinion".The required footwear is low cut boots, tried wearing stilettos once but I was sent home

*retirement healthcare
Yes, I guess I am a little bitter not necessarily for myself but more for my part-time brothers. Most ftmers don't care about us so why should I. Have a good day sir

Yes, It is a worthless opinion. Just wondering what your friend/T jobs is, if you even have one. Depending on your age your future may be bleak the way things are going on in the good old USA. You may never have a pension, decent benefits. Corporations only care about the shareholders. Yrs ago there were uprisings and shootings before unions. I wonder why? Because people were treated like crap and were almost compared to slaves. Miners had there fights against owners. Pressure by the workers made for a better life for us today, something your young butt does not understand. Just wondering if you would ever go friend/T at UPS, nah....can't handle it. Better go into mgnt and become another zombie in the corporate world of selfishness.......and Greed...
