[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 428849, member: 484"] red i agree, hoffa is only interested in power and money. right now, he has the power to hurt the economy very badly by calling a strike just at ups. with dhl biting the dust, and fedex in their sights, what type of damage would happen if he shut down all teamster businesses? seems like i remember that happening during or before the war in the coal industry? with this type of power in the hands of a crook, one that is not fairly elected (try mounting a campaign against him, got good life insurance?) by the american public, he has the power to bring our economy down to its knees? now, we at ups are the largest single block of teamsters. with fedex, we should still be. but will we still be what the teamsters spend a great deal of time and effort getting better contracts? or will we end up with a stagnant contract with possible give backs to make our wages and theirs more even? I believe what you will see is the same ponzi scheme the gooberment has on social security. only new money will keep the retirement afloat. i guess you can tell, i would just about trust ups more than i would the teamsters. at least with hoffa at the helm. d [/QUOTE]
