[QUOTE="BigUnionGuy, post: 3776749, member: 4992"] In a recent PM I had with a moderator of this forum, I stated it would shock me if more than 50% voted on the contract. I was right. The members need to take hard look in the mirror, and focus on where the blame actually lies. Going to the bargaining table with only 23% of the members voting for strike authorization.... is not like having a strong "pimp hand".... and obviously handicapped the negotiation team. It's time to face facts and move on. All this "post" voting speculation, is starting to sound like a 2 year old throwing a temper tantrum because they didn't get their way.... and can't understand why. This is precisely why, I wouldn't offer an opinion on whether I supported or decried the proposed language. If Vegas had put odds on this.... I would have won. The empirical data from previous contracts and elections proved me right. UPS members don't vote. -Bug- [/QUOTE]
