[QUOTE="no, post: 56856"] EZ, Just curious, how many express packages in the empty planes do you think the pilots had to fly if they weren't walking the picket lines with the majority of us? How many fewer friend/t and p/t drivers would be needed to deliver the fewer express packages that the shippers would not be shipping with us if the pilots went on strike? How much of that express volume would be permenantly loss to FDX or DHL if the pilots went on strike? How many hours would the preloaders lose in the morning due to a later start time? The fact is, the well-compensated minority will have an adverse effect on the majority, average paid employee, if the pilots go on strike. You're right, we're not sitting at the negotiating table so we don't know what the sticking point is. But based on the fact that these few, well paid co-workers of ours, that get paid 2-8 x's more than the average person at UPS, might affect our career/income detrimentally, probably scares or upsets quite a few of us.
