[QUOTE="Frankie's Friend, post: 3780345"] Constant reminders of a looming strike when you voted. I wonder how many saw or heard that threat when they attempted to register their vote and decided not to vote. No enlightenment about the 50% rule in that message. How many people come to ups or any closed shop job because it's a union job? My guess is they came there because the company is strong and there are always openings. To the outside job seeker Ups is considered a good place to work. The ibt played games like they did last time with the healthcare, allowing 2 whole regions to vote on the majority's healthcare but not being subject to it... and members then were required to spend an extra year in "progression" because of it. We're all just pawns in the game. Most just want to work a job and go home, not getting involved in union activities until some supe abuses them or they get pay or advancement (seniority rights) shorted. Then they "get it". You can avoid talking about the psychological games that are used to keep the sheep in the pen (Tony Q, et al) but it doesnt change the result. More anger and more apathy was cultivated this time than last. People who are so called leaders should be ashamed but they are not. Any union businesses out there sell tar and feathers? We need a semi load today. [/QUOTE]
