[QUOTE="IDoLessWorkThanMost, post: 373706, member: 12912"] I think the bottom line is (without getting too deeply involved with all the crap being thrown back and forth) is that 705 is going to pay for the slump in the economy, still ongoing, and a strike isn't too wise all things considered. Tired of hearing the 97 comparisons, too. Back then it was Teamsters (and many other union bases) fighting back against a stingy animal. UPS is Mr. Burns of the simpsons. But like tie said, most of the country already ratified a new contract and moved on with our lives. Sure UPS proposals are probably quite scary, but why should UPS give the golden goose to 705 when the company itself is slumping along with the rest of the world? Alot of us under the national agreement certainly didn't get the best contract, either, but we moved on. There will be a time when 705 is going to have to move on despite not getting all of what they want. Should be an interesting few weeks! [/QUOTE]
