Looks like the freight guys for ups will be onboard before ups package division will be. They are well aware of the past dumping on them of the teamsters. Why put your trust back in that boat ?This morning the APWA filed NLRB papers for the Pittsburgh, PA UPS Frieght terminal!

For or against the APWA, my hats off to them for trying to oranize the unorganized.
Tie they need 30% for the oppertunity for a final vote.puzzling occurance.
How many votes did it take to put the entire barn up for this vote?
Krash maybe not and maybe they had the teamster knuckle heads waiting at the fence for some Louisville guidence ? Wouldn`t suprise me ! I do believe their presence (APWA) has put pressure on the teamsters. I know for a fact down here in South Florida they(union) are doing their best witch hunt to find the people who are apwa friendly.Pkg will never be on-board and APWA isn't doing so well in freight now are they!
They got us maybe a new Pension overseer thats what the union is getting us becasue the last one couldn`t make it work ? Talk about no experience in picking Central States as a loosing pension provider.Nothing puzzling about it....
They filed a petition with only the minimal numer of cards signed to force an election. The apwa obviously knows nothing about organizing.
Now no one can touch them for a year.
But.... its what I've saying all along. NO experience.
Piss and moan about the Teamsters all you want.... But who do you think got you what you have today. Including you.... Tie
-Bug-
That's right brother Cole!!!!!!!
I don't think that any of the moves that the company is making concerning our pensions would be happening if the APWA had not turned up the heat on the company and the teamsters.
And there are some Like Jon that will try to find a way to blame the company no matter how far UPS is removed from responsibility.
There are 10 trustees in the CS fund. Five from the Teamsters, and one each from UPS, and four other companies. The one UPS trustee does not have much say in the handling of our funds, but the 5 Teamster trustees basically vote as one bloc.Tie,
UPS shares in the responsibilty at CS, aren't there UPS Trustees in CS?
Whats the chances that those 5 trustees from ups and the 4 other companies vote together against the teamsters proposals?There are 10 trustees in the CS fund.

Saw to my knowledge each trustee has the same voting power as another. 10 trustees 10 votes, 5 teamsters votes and 5 company votes all with equal say so as individuals.Red,
Don't quote me on this, but I was told that the one UPS person on the board is merely an observer and has no vote. I assume the other four would be the same way. So that leaves the voting power with the teamster members and the CS members of the board.
