[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 1020660, member: 14596"] Check the timeline again. The last best final was July 22nd. The strike only lasted 2 weeks, so that really would have been late bargaining on UPS' Part. If the UPS wanted to break the union, they would have started hiring replacement workers as soon as the strike started. That is how you break unions. Your statements are simply not supported by events. And for the record, I had a blast and kept getting paid during the strike, so I was not really butt hurt by what you did with the offer. I was neither in a bargaining unit job nor in management at the time. I simply think had the union continued to negotiate and drag out the process without calling a work stoppage, they could likely have won everything they eventually acquired without you having to miss a paycheck.
