[QUOTE="worldwide, post: 221669, member: 2193"] "Dude, whats up with you. Subcontracting is subcontracting. You can sugar coat it all you want but as a teamster, we teamsters will continue to enforce our contract." You are one sharp tack.. UPS introduces a service to compete with Fedex and DHL to bring in NEW business and that stipulates only NEW packages that UPS is not currently receiving can be part of the program. 100% of the packages are picked up, sorted and delivered by Teamsters resulting in new jobs. Instead of welcoming new business and new jobs, you would prefer these packages were never in the UPS system and that a non-union competitor carry them instead. Don't you get it? UPS would never have these packages going via ground residential service. The service is designed for low weight, low value items that shippers do not want to insure, or have claims paid or have all the bells and whistles of UPS ground. UPS never had these packages and never would. Along comes Basic service to take packages from non-union Fedex and DHL but you don't want to deliver them to a post office (even though a minority of overall Basic packages are delivered there). Even though you and every other Teamster driver is getting paid to deliver them, you don't want them. Remember, these packages never existed in the system before--they are NEW business to UPS. UPS tries to get to more packages in to the system to create additional Teamster jobs (as required by the contract) and yet you would prefer to NOT have these packages. How about this--what is YOUR solution for UPS to be competitive with the Fedex and DHL version of Basic? You must have a solution to the Basic "problem," correct? Keep in mind, the competion delivers 100% of their Basic equivalent packages to the post office. What is your solution for UPS to win this business at a competitive rate that the customer is willing to pay and that UPS can still maintain a profit on. [/QUOTE]
