[QUOTE="ups_vette, post: 249960, member: 2125"] homer....Texas INTERSTATE rights were granted in Nov 1971. I was a Center Manager in Pennsylvania on temp assignment training new drivers in the Texas City Center. The "wildcat" strike you refered to was NOT a "wildcat" strike. This was before a National Contract was instituted. The 11 states (Maine, Vemont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Mass., Conn., NY, NJ, PA, MD, WVA, and VA) were actually 12 states, and their Contracts had expired. This was in 1975. The primary reason for the strike was the part timer's pension plan. The Union wanted the part timers in the Union's Pension Plan and UPS felt it would be better for the part timers if they were in UPS's Pension Plan. I think we all know which plan the part timers are covered by today. UPS management saw the problems with a Union Pension Plan over 30 years ago, and the problems still exist to this day. [/QUOTE]
