[QUOTE="Expendable, post: 257152, member: 11466"] To vote on how any one issue benefits just yourself is playing into the hands of our would-be masters. We have what we do because we're UNION. We should vote to protect our UNION(not our leadership). Read EVERY change in the language, imagine it's effect in practice, and if it is good, give credit. If it's bad, pay attention to its long-term ramifications. If you don't understand it, maybe THEY like it that way. This contract has a few nominal improvements, but most seem to be just another concession in a long series of concessions. We shouldn't accept half- cent raises or split raises. If we get a $3 raise over 5yrs, don't jack up things so you have 2 chances to take it back, or so you can call it $4! .I am just sick of watching the UNION getting beat at the table, while UPS and the leadership come away with what they want. We struck in '97, and 10yrs later, we cave in to the exact same offer. Don't we look foolish! We don't have to strike right now, so at least we have a free shot at protesting this farce with a united NO! [/QUOTE]
