[QUOTE="BrownShark, post: 254535, member: 12148"] I urge all of you to read the contract, carefully read all the BOLD print in every article, ask if you dont understand any of it, then vote NO. As a former executive officer of the Teamsters for my local, and having sat at the table in 92,97 & 2002, I can say that this contract is a terrible begining to an ugly ending for the Teamster workers at UPS. The only benefactors from this contract seem to be the executive board itself. Although all 300 locals unanimously approved this contract, believe me, it is full of giveaways of hard fought language that protected our workers. Now, its been weakened and in some cases, eliminated out of the book. The package and sort riders may still save you in some states, as the language may not change, but I recommend that you ask your local for a copy of ALL the riders and suplementals along with ANY M.O.A.'s that may have been signed and agreed too with the company. The full extent of the damage wont be able to be fully seen untill all the books are finalized. Read, and vote no. They can do better, but WE must hold them all accountable. Go to your local meeting and voice your objections, be heard and demand change. Peace. BrownShark. [/QUOTE]
