[QUOTE="Delivered, post: 249287, member: 518"] This sums up their views of the recent news. Copied this from their website. It’s October 01 & YOU’VE JUST BEEN “DONE” When we announced we would create a single employer pension plan for UPS employees we heard it said that: It is not possible to exit a multi-employer pension plan. It is not possible to go from a multi-employer pension plan to a single employer plan. UPS will never pay the money necessary to leave the Central States Plan unless Hell freezes over. Well guess what, ice skates are being handed out in Hell today with the announcement that UPS will pay $6.1 BILLION dollars to exit a multi-employer plan and go to a single employer plan. When we announced that Hoffa would “SELL YOU TO UPS LIKE A SLAB OF BEEF at the supermarket” we heard people say that they could trust Hoffa to never give them up to the company. Well guess what, YOU’VE JUST BEEN GIVEN UP to the company. The only thing open to discussion when we made that statement was the amount of the selling price. Now we know. Question: What do you think Hoffa had to give UPS to get $6.1 BILLION? Question: Do you think that whatever it was will impact Hoffa or any of his pony crowd? Question: Do you think that the common worker will pay the price in order for Hoffa to keep his “anointed” position? Question: Do you think your current bargaining agent, teamsters, will have any bargaining clout now that they no longer hold the big pit pension plan? Question: Do you remember those years upon years and contracts upon contracts where we were pounded with the idea that the very existence of the teamsters depended on keeping control of that pension money? ANSWER-HOFFA’S DERRIER HAS BEEN SAVED AND YOURS HAS JUST BEEN “DONE”. KY anyone? [/QUOTE]
