[QUOTE="brett636, post: 163966, member: 249"] Do you really believe the foolishness of what you just posted? You won't even post the name of the fund manager they supposedly have already setup to run a pension. How can I, or any rational UPS employee, put our livelihoods at risk for an organizationg that is so secretive about what its doing. Comparing our situation to braveheart is also hardly a good analogy. I for one do not feel like I am being abused or used or that I have it bad in any way. I am paid better than a lot of people that I know, my medical benefits trump that of just about everyone in the private sector today, and combining that with smart investments I will also enjoy a good retirement. How can you construe this as bad? As with any company there are areas of opportunity, but those are not matters that concern me greatly enough that I want to throw out my current union for an unproven one. Finally, if a union wanted to take over for the teamsters that had some real facts to back it up I would be much more open to the idea. If the mechanic's union were trying to take over for the teamsters I would be all for it, because they have proven they do a much better job at providing a solid retirement and good benefits. Coupling this with the poor showing the APWA has put on this web forum I can't come up with a single good reason to ever support them in any way. APWA is nothing more than a fool's dream. [/QUOTE]
