[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1159517, member: 17969"] [b]Re: Current Result[/b] Regardless of the outcome, its pretty clear that the COMPANY was able to force the teamsters to divide us in HALF. Just look at the numbers. 50 something approval percentage in many locals. That tells you that we are NOT unified. As a brotherhood, we are finished with these kinds of numbers. When half of us are against the other half, regardless of who's right, WE BOTH LOSE. In my local, of the votes returned, 80% of the members rejected the T.A. That was pretty high, but, our vote count was not nearly representative of the total members in our local. Over 5000 votes did not come in. Whether or not they actually voted, got lost or never received a ballot is something we will never know. Even with an 80% rejection, some stewards were running around attempting to convince everyone to vote yes, because thats what they were told to do by our principle officers. What a slap in the face to them all. Now, with the western supplement being rejected, Article 30 section (B) will have to be re negotiated or "WE" the members will NOT approve the supplemental under any circumstances! No more dog and pony show from Andy M, Ron H or Randy :censored:. They'd better read the handwriting on the wall and stand up for the members in the new negotiations! Its too late to think about themselves. For H in 396, the talk amongst the pkg and feeder drivers is removal regardless of the new outcome. "WE" will rebuild our unity, even if it means replacing those principle officers who allowed us to be divided in the first place. Peace TOS [/QUOTE]
