Tiny Tim looks like he seething. He's trying so hard to fake smile knowing he was dwarfed by Ken and Sean.
Sent using the conscience of Local 251
I hope at the gm meeting the members demand he resign. He has poisoned this local with his tdu bs. It takes brains and balls to be a good ba. A steady diet of kool aid just don't cut it. Wake up 804 we just bit the bullet, it's time to rid our local of tdu.

It would be inappropriate for such a demand to be raised at the general membership meeting. No action can be taken by the Executive Board to force his resignation. Do you even have any idea if the Maspeth 250 would support such a demand? I mean...after all...the biggest critics of Liam and the Executive Board are the self serving opportunists from outside of Maspeth. Aren't you guys getting tired of kicking the political football around?

Ummm...actually, I think it's O'Brien. Anyway, why don't you run your suggestion by the Local 804 Executive Board? That would be the appropriate venue for such a request. And I'm sure that they've already considered your repeated calls for their resignation. Hey! Bring member 6045 and not a brain in his head<<<oops, I mean not what i voted for>>>with you. And good luck with that!

We had a center manager busted down to Driver Supervisor and sent to Maspeth in 1990. The company was trying to get him to quit. He hung in and after about 5 years in purgatory was allowed to come back ,but never again in Manager Status. he told me on more than once he hated every minute he was there

I would grieve the 2 week suspension or reject it and stay with the discharge if UPS did not grant Reyes his Weingarten Rights or UPS did not follow the contract.
Reyes, Liam or any other discharged drivers rights under NLRB Federal Law are not diminished in any way by the decision made by UPS and the Union to agree on a 2 week unpaid suspension.
You do not want this in your employee history if the action was indeed legal. If UPS violated anything with in the NLRB; why would employees settle for anything less than full reinstatement with everything expunged and back pay. Drivers will be entitled to pain and suffering damages and punitive damages to UPS. That is if...and it is a big if; UPS violated Reyes Weingarten Rights or UPS did not settle the dispute in the required manner outlined in the contract.
Drivers can file with the NLRB or other State or Federal Agencies even after they are reinstated. Drivers have nothing to lose by filing with the NLRB or any other govt. agencies. I would file anywhere the case would apply.
UPS will follow thru with their 2 week unpaid suspensions. If you think they will make good on their commitment to resolve grievances more expeditiously and follow the contract and stop the excessive harassment; then I have a bridge in Brooklyn that you may be interested in buying.
Stay strong 804, stand your ground and complete what Liam fought for. Liam you are a badass and an inspiration to all of us. Your speech hit it right on the head.
(Liam) ---- " I can tell you I don't have the IBT backing because the IBT cares more about UPS than the drivers. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If UPS abides by the contract, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for UPS, I will not pursue UPS. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will hold you accountable."**

When I look at the whole thing, it looks like a real slap in the face to local 804 and their e-board. Yes, 250 hourly got their jobs back which is fantastic, but the price was high. 2 week unpaid suspension, living in the high rent area of New York, UPS wins. The local has to reimburse all moneys lost due to the work stoppage, UPS wins. UPS calms the fears of the city and stops any action by political entities to penalize the company, UPS wins. The beloved BA is banned from UPS property, UPS wins. The conditions that started the whole process are still in place in every building, no commitment that the company has to change its ways, UPS wins. Ups has put the fear of termination into every job action nationwide, UPS wins. UPS is in better shape in every way than before the job action. That's 6 wins to one for the Teamsters, and the blame is going to be placed directly on the L804 board and their agents.
