Anyone have the official position of leadership on this move? It could be political wrangling. They were against it back when they over road the will of the electorate.

Both slates put in different proposals for the same thing. Everyone wanted to get rid of it but still wanted to put in safeguards.

That won’t happen why should bob be payed less for doing the same job because of where he lives
You want to divide folks propose that
You’d be blind to reality if you truly think that division doesn’t already exist. Besides we already have employees making more doing the same job in other classifications. Our PTers start at $21 an hour, that wasn’t a typo. They indeed start at a higher wage then our 22.4’s. You think that’s ok?
 
This is good news, perhaps real changes can now happen. First off would be eliminating National pay scale to finally address wage discrepancies across the country. Secondly, eliminate the divisive 22.4 position. Your schedule, be it M-friend, T-S, or Sun-Wed should be simply based on seniority while still giving all drivers equal protection and rights.
Put subcontracting on the list.

What are the odds that even if no is the majority, they’ll come up with some other excuse to slam it thru? What they did to us last time was an absolute disgrace. UPS says we hear our employees we will go back to the table. Union says nah that’s ok, contract ratified.

The union negotiating committee wanted this contract to go through, they knew from the beginning that it would be voted down. When the final tallies were counted that was when they played that over 50 percent clause. It was orchestrated, Either Hoffa knew he was retiring or that he wouldn’t be voted in after the 2013 election, he had nothing to lose. The informational black out only added to the collusion, a back door deal was made way before the negotiations. There was a official statement from UPS seconds after it was voted down that they were willing to go back to the table...? A minute later the International ratified it without an afterthought...weird

The big puzzle was the federal bailout of the Central, no longer is UPS responsible for any additional default payments in the future. Why are they eliminating further funding into the Management Pension Plans, all happening around 2023?

I sure hope that this convention is not another dog and pony show. Some good things are being said from both sides, but talk is cheap.

How’s that the guy in Bismarck’s fault
All package drivers need to be paid the same wage
It is the same wage, adjusted up in high cost of living areas. Don't worry, lower cost of living areas will still be ahead.

Did Anyone here work with anyone that crossed the line? How were they treated when everyone went back to work?
Had a person in our office that used their shuttle pkg cars to get into the bldg. When we went back to work, my last grievance I had to process before I retired was for her. We won the grievance but it was difficult to help her under the circumstances.
