[quote="Mr. Bojangles, post: 1305920, member: 52022"Yea but I thought there were some real problems. How better to send a message that with below a thirty percent turn out. Seventy percent of the members don't even care. They didn't vote. That's a joke.[/quote]
I agree, dont know why people dont vote. You cant make It any easier to vote! Just think how small the turnout would be, if you actually had to vote at the union hall!

Less than 30% of my local voted on our supplement...it is what it is. I'd vote NO..again if I could.

Good job with that 30% or less turnout. Those members are dedicated.

How many of those ten thousand members are UPS employees?

Is that how they used to vote in the old days?

All

 

[QKRSTKR]

Yea with their 30% turnout. They sure showed up.

They obviously knew it was going down in flames. Would it make u feel better if it was 9000 no and 1000 yes?

All

But no Cleveland Browns,fans!

 

[mancini]

hopefully they can just force these remaining locals to suck it up and deal with it. Sure sounds like 70% of their local doesn't even care...Why should the rest of us?.....3000 people holding up the tens of thousands of otheres is beyond stupid.

Wrong answer ! Its not all for you and screw the rest of us!

 

[mancini]

that’s exactly my point ...lITS not just about your local the rest of us are sick of this.

2840 NO votes to 185 yes votes. Local 89 voted it down.

Because this was a "last and best" offer, does this vote count as the strike authorization vote, or do they have to vote again?

Your not getting It. Dont throw your brothers,under the bus. Just because you dont want to hear their problems! Just think ,if the shoe was on the other foot!

Sick of what? Not supporting your union brothers and sisters? Just because you disagree, doesn't mean they not fighting for valid reasons....they deserve our support! Your retro check will still be there in a year....

No...they have to do a strike authorization vote. they did not send one out, with the contract ballot.

The IBT will step in at this point and accept the "last and best" offer on behalf of the local. There will be no strike authorization vote.

 

[oldngray]

This vote also counted as a strike authorization. It doesn't mean a strike, just authorizes the union to strike if they decide to.

 

[mancini]

Sick of what? Not having a contract. Customers asking when this thing will be over. We all look like a bunch of big babies to the outside world. We make more than the average person and that the only thing most people care to hear about..."You make how much money and still complaining?" Is the kind of stuff I'm sick of
