[QUOTE="7777777, post: 169532"] Not desperation, necessity. There is a difference. Plenty of people were recently given a perfectly reasonable offer to walk away. Next step is demotions, transfer to operations, retirement, or termination/layoff. Somebody should have thought of that possibility instead of viewing themselves as a semi-permanent “adoptee.” If you think there has been a “partnership” for the last (10 anyway, but I’m thinking more like 14) years, you haven’t been paying attention. You don’t need to “think” or “know” anything or “follow mindlessly” – you simply have to be NEEDED. If not, you’re out. Well, eventually – and sooner rather than later, IMO. “Brown machine” isn’t collapsing under their own weight at all – they’re collapsing due to poor decisions made by (pre-Eskew) executive management and legacy-based burdens – absolutely. Shedding those “legacy based” burdens is an issue that is attracting more interest by the hour. It’s a decade too late, but I can assure you that it is an option that is being considered TODAY. But take that for what it’s worth on a Teamster crybaby board – nothing. [/QUOTE]
