I recently heard a rumor that here in Jacksonville FL, Local 512 has colluded with UPS management to ignore all grievances filed in violation of Article 3 section 7 (supervisors working).
Now, it has totally gotten out of control when it comes to this. Of course down here most people, except for a few, will look the other way and go home while the supervisors do their work because they don't want to make waves.
None of this comes as a surprise to me. Our union is weak and the company wants to line the pockets of their shareholders and executives by violating the contract and shoving it up our ***** every which way possible.
However, to hear that our own Local selling us out like this is completely irresponsible and unacceptable. So why should I continue to support Teamsters by paying union dues if they are just going to shove it up my ***** and not honor the contract as well ???
