[QUOTE="Asskicker, post: 1145259, member: 45097"] Are you on the list for Supervisor Heff? You are soooo off. If this contract passes healthcare WILL be coming out of your pocket. Have you done any research on this wonderful agreement that you believe because Hall has negotiated before? IBT is giving us a snow job. UPS can do better with their profits right now. It's not like the company is hurting (like Hostess) and we should make concessions like this. We are not squeezing every nickel out of them, they are squeezing every nickel out of us. Wake up dude!!!! Greedy workers haven't tainted the Union....crooked Exec have. What happened in the Central States pension Mr. Knowledgeable? How did they manage to bankrupt them? Who dipped into that fund until dry? I'm not an idiot saying we should bankrupt UPS, but this is completely unacceptable. And by the way, here is some Hostess info. You also are misinformed about that.

Yet UPS is very, very profitable and we aren't asking for the world, but we shouldn't be making concessions either. They are profitable because we bust our ass for them to make them profitable.
