[QUOTE="35years, post: 3025725, member: 60822"] The next steps in the contract propaganda campaign will be: 1. Management hanging around where you punch in and out. They will pretend to be your best friends. They will try to create dialog first about your family/personal life. Eventually, when they think you see them as descent people, they will manipulate the conversations to include how much better we have it compared to employees of other companies. Warning letters will virtually disappear closer to vote time. 2. Sup will ride with you not to harass you but to talk about how competition is killing us. They will pretend to care what you think is important in the next contract. 3. Positive compliments and team building will be major themes. Small group meetings will become more common so experienced employees will not influence the newbies. Add in a few anti-union comments, but not too strong. We are all one big happy team. 4. Peak will likely be easier then past peaks. They will over hire Temps and helpers so we do not become bitter...Remember recent peaks when they upped the max hours and shoved it down our throats. Just remember they voted themselves millions in additional compensation. Remember they worked you 14 hours a day out of greed. Remember the later start times across the country were to make them a few more $, not out of necessity. Same with understaffing for years. They don't care about you, and UPS is making billions .
