Yup, that about all we are hearing.

You would think someone would say SOMETHING.
They have bargained free medical, $12.90 in raises in the last 3 contracts, $10.46 mire for H&W to $22.64, to name a few. And your complaint is that you want some information? Why? So TDU can give everyone a scare? So FedEx can give customers a scare? How do you know that they are not meeting about the contract this very week? You also pay taxes, does the president need to tell you what is discussed with the FBI and world leaders?My question is exactly what the hell is the IBT doing for me for the money I pay them?!?!?! I pay you jack-wagons every check and have yet to see ANY return on my investment!!
And now you've uncovered the strategy.I expect to get slammed with part-timers asking/demanding me where their raise is come August 8th (first pay period after August 1st).

It would be nice to hear something from the IBT . I get asked every shift by people how do I answer ? Stay positive ?

Was there a co-pay 4 contracts ago? What was the deductible 4 contracts ago? Their "bargaining" is a fail and your claim of "free medical" is a lie! The raises the last 2 contracts were less than previous contacts both in terms of raw % and in dollar amount. We went from being told, "no premiums" to part timers paying through the nose for insurance in less than 1 week and in that 1 week we flew all the BA's for a 2 man sit down and then had a claim that everyone endorses the contract.
Yes I want some information! Every dues paying teamster is OWED that and the fact that Hoffa and company hasn't been heard from in weeks speaks volumes! Good god man, UPS just blamed the the teamsters for the lowered quarterly profits if not in so many words.
