[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 251802, member: 1664"] No offense taken on my part. But, I will tell you that my reasons for quiting the teamsters and going back to work was not monetary. I had enough money set back to wait out a 6 month strike and not change a thing in my lifestyle. I was lied to and being manipulated by an internal power play in the teamsters, to the detriment of Upser's. My personal moral code does not allow me to support or condone such behavior. My "scabbing" may be a weak link to the teamster mentality, but when I saw intentional harm being directed at the company that has always met it's promises to me, I chose my side. This diatribe is not directed at you 804, it is just my way of trying to explain why I had to make a hard decision. Scabs may not be good for the union. I have never endorsed or posted that anyone should scab and I never will. I believe in unions, just not the teamsters. I also believe, all states should be right to work states. Freedom of choice is a basic constitutional right. Where else in America are you forced to join an association and send them money? PAX [/QUOTE]
