[QUOTE="HEFFERNAN, post: 492413, member: 11315"] How could the Teamsters sucessfully juggle UPS and Fed-Ex considering we are 2 competing companies ? My issue with Fed-Ex ever going union is that the Teamsters can force a strike at will with the company and shut down Fed-Ex. Or vice versa, destroying one of the delivery services. It sounds good in theory since we both do the same thing. I just can't see it working out for us even if Fed-Ex goes away. Really, how screwed would we be if Fed-Ex went on strike ! Management could/would be very slow in adding routes and drivers. All of our facilities would be slammed peak style. They would have to refigure routes possibly for rebids. Added pickups would destroy regular pickup times for our regular customers. Maybe its a good thing. Bright side- no one pushing sales leads :surprised: [/QUOTE]
