[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1095766, member: 42270"] While I would love nothing more than to bring UPS down to its knees with a nationwide strike, it should only be utilized as an absolute last resort. If they back off on health care and we can negotiate a good deal without concessions, then the IBT has done its job. If we strike, volume will definitely be lost and people will be hurting - I know I will. But I've also dumped my last fat tax refund (thank you, American Hope education tax credit) directly into savings, will be paying off my credit card in full, getting a few months ahead of my car payments, and have a vacation scheduled for the third week (second full week) of August. I'm going to shuffle as much cash as I can into savings and be as ready as I can be over the next few months. I'd rather sleep in a gutter than cross a picket line, but I also don't have a wife and kids. [/QUOTE]
