[QUOTE="Undertow, post: 3581116, member: 4550"] Very similar at my building. After such a pathetic performance from management in the run up, during, and now after such an awful peak season, the best of the best drivers in the facility have flat out had it and are leaving for semi driving or just retiring outright in pure contempt. Unless there is iron clad language that substantially draws the line on what have become intersecting issues regarding technology, forced overtime, and continual harassment then I can't see any way this gets out of my local with anything remotely near approval from the members. Back in '97, the mood here among most of the rank and file was a reluctant willingness to strike. Not anymore. An absolutely overwhelming amount of the hourlies are so angry about the non stop terrible working conditions and the constant failure of management to fix the always inadequate staffing that the willingness to channel that anger into a strike is at an all time high. Unless there's some kind of unprecedented pension bump that the bargaining committee somehow forgot to mention among the "highlights", there's zero chance this gets a YES vote here. [/QUOTE]
