[QUOTE="InsideUPS, post: 1098364, member: 31414"] Greetings Toonertoo.. Could you please explain the reasoning behind your comment "[I]But do you not think the health affordability act gives UPS a huge bargaining chip?". [/I]I've tried to read and understand the Healthcare Affordability Act but I'm not quite sure how it will be an advantage to UPS as a "huge bargaining chip". Also...it seems like you are the type of person that worries a lot. If I were you, I would probably start thinking about your Brown Cafe "motto" : "God is great, Beer is good. People are crazy!!" Therefore.... I suggest you Pray more, Drink more Beer, and thank God that there aren't more crazy beer drinkers... : ) Seriously... as one Buckeye to another..... I would not worry about the contract. UPS is not really in a "win win situation". UPS shares of stock are now subject to the very volatile stock market. (not the case during the 1997 strike) If there is any hint that UPS will incur some type of negative labor dispute (such as a strike), the price of UPS stock would tumble. (at least for awhile). The price of FedEx stock will dramatically increase...as they attempt to take more of our business. I personally do not believe that Scott Davis and our Union will allow a strike to occur.... It is in our mutual best interest to come to an early agreement. [/QUOTE]
