[QUOTE="hypocrisy, post: 934569, member: 9500"] See, what Clark is talking about the Teamsters had an answer to. Some wise people have said "If a Company has a Union representing their employees, there is a reason for it". When UPS tries to cut too many routes and pile the work on package drivers, we have a 9.5 hour grievance procedure with triple time (Triple Time!) to make is very, very expensive for them to do so. The intent is to make it cheaper for UPS to utilize the employees they have instead of overworking you like the horse in [I]True Grit[/I]. Now some will rightly say that triple time hasn't been enough so we will most likely have contract proposals to deal with that too. Can you say quadruple time? But even when layoffs are necessary we have an orderly process so you know where you are going based on Seniority, not favoritism, ageism, sexism or racisim. Job Security: just one more benefit of going Union that I bet a lot of those 80% were wishing they had. [/QUOTE]
