[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 5248203, member: 198"] Believe it or not there are many of us at UPS that have gotten pretty frustrated with the union. Whether it be our local or the national. Some of us might have even gotten more frustrated than you are now. But I have never really entertained the idea of withdrawing. It just wouldn’t feel right knowing that I’d continue to receive every tangible benefit that comes/came with the Teamsters representing us. And there’s the potential repercussions from your coworkers and/or union reps. The latter is one that just makes me laugh. Like, for example, when I see the biggest antiunion driver in my center handing in a grievance to one of the stewards. That is wrong in so many ways. RTW sucks for that reason. RTW wouldn’t be so bad if nonmembers were forced to fend for themselves. Which would result in many, if not all, of them coming back in. The ones that aren’t fired anyway. I would seriously reconsider what you are trying to do. I can almost guarantee you will regret it if you don’t. [/QUOTE]
