[QUOTE="purplesky, post: 1018354, member: 23628"] 2 tier will not happen on this next contract. UPS is making way too much profit to even consider it. This next contract will be quietly settled in advance and both parties will feel like they got a fair deal. Now if UPS wants to play hardball and wake up the union giant that has been asleep it might not be a bad thing for America. But UPS cannot afford a shutdown and neither can most UPSERS and FDX couldn't handle the volume of a shutdown. Online shopping growth will continue to grow at a rapid pace and the eventual shutdown of the Postal service(sooner than later) will allow for a good contract that allows UPS to continue to make billions in profit each quarter and expand Globally and give UPSERS a decent pension,healthcare, and the top pay in the shipping industry. It aint broke. So don't fix it. I thought for sure that FDX would be a bigger problem for UPS in 2012 but they have some serious business model issues and growth issues to work out. They are a very dysfunctional company with service and personal issues. Strangely enough the union pay company is doing better and Wall street agrees. [/QUOTE]
