[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 54812"] Michael, Who says they are not. Actually, if you think of the Teamsters as thugs you should check out Fred and Friends when he finds out a local Fedex center is talking with the Teamsters. It is hard to get a majority secretly and a minority is just intimidated and/or fired. While many Fedex drivers are dissatisfied they are not willing to put their job on the line, which they are doing if they publicly start talking about unionizing. I helped my local try to do so in my area several years ago and ended up successfully unionizing two of the drivers. Course that was cause I helped them get into UPS after they were fired by Fedex. Tough Sell. With Airborne, errr excuse me, DHL being partially Teamsters already we have a better chance there and are actively working with some of the DHL employees with much discretion currently. Terminations are still a threat here as well. (Message edited by Ok2bclever on January 11, 2005) [/QUOTE]
