Who said all of it? If I am being told right. this is something they did regularly before the company went public.
5.8 billion dollars was reported to the SEC as their profit-net income-whatever term you want.
Accept pay freeze for future stronger contract language

Im glad you finally admitted a 3 year old could do your job. It takes a man to be a driver.
Maybe you would but I'm not giving anything back not even a penny. Only an idiot would give back raises they already received and are guaranteed.
As long as your work for UPS your are only going to be guaranteed 8 hr a day. You will never be guaranteed only 8 hours each day. Get used to it or move on.

I get that. I was wondering why you said the 50 billion UPS made last year should be shared among the employees, when most of it was paid to them.

The Hoffa team will help to weaken the contract even more, then put pay raises and most upsers will vote yes. That's what I think.

The problem is the union is fighting for it's own existence as well as for employees it represents.

My father is a retired union man from way back. My grandfather worked for the AFL-CIO. Both firmly believed that if a company acted with morales and integrity, there is no need for a union. I believe that, too. Unions are there for the workers. Not themselves. That is where a union starts to get into murky water. Protecting their own mortality, so to say, is not more important than the protection of the member. They are a organization of workers that have banded together to achieve common goals. The main common goal is better working conditions. I have seen working conditions deteriorate over the years I have worked here. That is my main complaint with the Teamsters. What are they doing about working conditions? I want a answer to that.

anonymous,
I agree with your statement.
This can only happen if Local Union Officials become strong union people first.
Attitude and morale are a reflection of leadership.
I strongly urge the local union officials to stop hanging their toughness on the practice of saving individuals from termination.
Please don't get excited, I believe they need to protect individuals from wrongful termination and I support that 100%.
What I am against is the strength of union leadership being measured by the amount of individuals that they have saved from termination.
Union officials would do well to seek to have individuals who refuse to work according to the contract removed from service.
Often times the individuals that they save from termination are the weakest, poorest example of what a union worker should represent.
It is written UPS Policy to seek to follow the collective bargaining agreement.
Any worker management or hourly who doesn't seek to honor the collective bargaining agreement should immediately change.
If they refuse to change or are unable to change they should be fired.
Sincerely,
I

Meanwhile ups management will keep documenting and observing and giving warning letters and hearings. They will pick off the ignorant and keep drilling methods into your brain and Joe Me-ster will feel entitled to do as he always has and get the ax and be in the DMs hot seat. From a business standpoint a diver costs over $110,000 a year price tag and these guys are so stupid to follow the RULES why wouldn't management pick em off one two three at a time.
My local 407 preaches methods METHODS SDOHTEM backwards for the idiots.
It's up to them think about it.

Can't wait for your retort.

Menotyou....here is one I heard yesterday from a steward
We had an employee on the midnight sort injured last week - long story short, he was given a written warning and pending suspension for "not working as directed" when he did work as directed but was incapable of working up to the speed as directed to work at.

Not sure why I put it in this thread.

I was wondering when that would start. I knew it would. That is over-managing. Art 37 should be filed. After being harassed for months, I told my supervisor that I hope his daughter has a supervisor like my dad's kid has. He didn't like it that. I told him that should tell you something, then.
