[QUOTE="stink219, post: 1204004, member: 29852"] That is a question that I here from a lot of people lately. There is not 1 flyer, website or mailing that states their credentials to handle or local or the 42 million dollars in our health fund. There are a bunch of unanswered questions about AU251. They say they will train stewards, well who will train them when almost all of the UA slate were never stewards let alone BA's. They say they will have members on contract negotiating committees. That does zero good for us UPSers. Our negotiators are selected by the international, we currently had 3 on the committee. How many will UA251 have? Answer is zero. They say they will cut officers salaries by 250k? Why won't they tell us how much each will make and how they will allocate each position? How will their relationships with neighboring locals be? Will they cut ties? You can't learn this job as you go. Pretty much everyone on the Membership Slate started as a steward, then a trustee, then an assistant BA, then BA and so on. UA251 boasts education? You can't get a better education then learning from the beginning on up. [/QUOTE]
