No way your hands are clean if you encourage pt sups to do union work.The Phillies are playing home Monday and Wednesday. Maybe we can take in a game. You can cheer for the Dodgers.  |

BUSTED!! Well maybe I watched a management person unload a trailer from afar. If I unloaded a Trailer I would probably kill over. Anyhow there is nothing called a truck at the United Parcel Service. We refer to them as trailers.... | |

We have full medical coverage, dental coverage, we're getting paid for holidays and vacations, getting turkeys for christmas, we are bidding into positions we want and bidding for extra hours as well.

Its only after they have experienced these things do they come to realize what the union can do for them. | |

But i really can't blame my boss for "doing what is best for the co. at the time" if they aren't going to speak then they get what they get..
Sad part is i'm not even a steward just a pee in the pod.
Im done fighting others battle only to get **** on by fellow "brothers". | 1 year and 5 month you are in feeder already? and you have people below you? which hub do you work out of?

I'm in the central Pa. area. We hire off the street in my hub. Just got lucky and got hired when they were growing. I have two guys with a third to come on board after the new year. | |
