[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 1110550, member: 13921"] What are FE people willing to do to organize???? Is there anyone that is willing to lose their job for the opportunity to vote??? Even though it is against the law, FE will fire drivers. Sure you can sure under Labor Act laws, but you have to understand that it can take 3 years to wind through the courts. It has happened in St Cloud, Mn when workers at Spee Dee Delivery people tried to organize. 3 drivers were fired. All 3 were given a union lawyer to fight the firings. All 3 firings were found to be in violation of the law and all 3 got back pay, 2.5 years later. In the end, the organizing effort at Spee Dee failed. Not because UPS people did not talk to them, because managers told them they would all be fired if they voted for a union. FE people need to study some unionizing efforts before they spout off about 'how easy it would be' or 'how UPS and the Teamsters' need to help more. If you want something done, you have to do it yourself. [/QUOTE]
