[QUOTE="705red, post: 889343, member: 5229"] Volume is down because the IBT is giving our work away to the post office. We are lucky here in 705 that we enforce our own contract with our own panels and arbitration system. But dong both of those also has a huge price tag behind it. If the IBT could enforce the contract instead of holding hundreds of cases at every National panel it would help every Teamster local. If they give a decision on one grievance, that grievance would help to settle dozens of the same grievance immediately. I would say that $200,000 is still to high. Im a simple man and I dont look to get rich off the backs of the hard working men and woman of this Union, and no one else should. You keep running back to the wages, yes they are up. But it doesnt mean anything to the people across this country that have been laid off or displaced with a pay cut. We are lucky here that we changed our language so that any FT employee still keeps their hourly wage. Parts of the country are not this lucky and members have been hurting for years because of simple contract enforcement by the National panel.!!! If we elect a GP that wants to enforce the contract its a huge difference. If you have been around 705 for a while you have seen how things have changed over the last 10 years. It isnt easy to break UPS of their bad habits, but it can be done. [/QUOTE]
