[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1161630, member: 17969"] Will they (HOFFA / HALL ) get the message? Ask yourself, Has Hoffa or Hall made a statement to the teamter membership regarding the failure to pass the national contract and supplementals? Where is the leadership? hall was hoping on planes left and right in the months of january, february, march, april when he was busy "fist pounding" at rallys telling us everything we wanted to hear. But now, we havent heard a PEEP out of either one of them. NOT A SINGLE WORD. In a time , where they need to show us some leadership, both of them are AWOL. What are they waiting for? Its bad enough, the agents of our local along with our principle officers are running around trying to distance themselves from Hoffa / Hall, and most of them are saying that both Hoffa / Hall are "outta here in the next election"... The message? Really? Its been sent loud and clear. 17 supplementals rejected. The TA barely passing with 3000 votes. Thousands of votes uncounted or ballots missing. Today, UPS has started its counter Campaign against us, using the very words of our leaders against us as well... UPS spokesmen are saying that "we had a handshake agreement with the teamsters and we had a unanimous approval of the contract by teamster leaders." Now, they are making "US" out to be little greedy bastards. Telling the public about our wonderful benefit package, an almost 4 dollar raise, a pension fund, and over 100K a year jobs, yet we turned that down in this economy. Our leaders put us in this mess, and they better stand up and take ownership of it. Where is the fist pounding now? How about a general statement on the status of what will happen next? Why are they letting UPS shoot first? These are the questions I have for both HOFFA AND HALL, if either of them have the balls to come to my local. Peace TOS [/QUOTE]
