[QUOTE="705red, post: 429216, member: 5229"] I am not a Hoffa fan at all, he has been a big disappointment, bigger than some predicted he would have been. However it seems his best interest as president is to side with the companies rather than the dues paying members! Everyone remember when he first ran? No teamster official would make more than $150,000 a year because its just wrong to earn that much money representing hard working middle class Americans (Canadians for ds). He sold us at ups on split raises at 35 cents this year, while taking a cost of living raise that was far more than the raise we received. He is now making over $400,000 and for what? Hoffa doesn't have the stones to take any other companies out on strike! Look what a disaster overnite turned into! And who suffered for that? We did as upsers! we excepted split raises and allowed ups to buy out of the cs plan so that Hoffa could retire (hopefully we vote him out before he retires) saying that it was the Hoffa administration that organized the impossible with a card check agreement at ups freight! If this is the best hes done and willing to hang his hat on this legacy, i cant wait for his old man to kick the crap out of him in the after life! Fed i have been out here in the Chicago area half a dozen times organizing at FedEx ground and home delivery barns. Understand that in Chicago we are under separate contracts with all of our members and companies from the national, and believe or not we actually take pride in enforcing our contract language through the grievance procedure.
