[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 215479, member: 4886"] I had similar opinions on this. It wasn't too long ago the the UAW had control over the Big Three; GM, Ford, Chrysler. When they went to get a contract they would target one of the companies, strike if necessary, which it often was then "win" their contract. The other two companies followed suit. In this way each worker only had to strike once every 3 strikes since they rotated which company was targeted. It worked pretty good, until the US auto company couldn't effectively compete against the foreign manufacturers. Both the mgmt and union (IMO) were responsible for the demise of the US auto industry. Would this same problem happen to us if FDX were to become 100% union? I agree, be careful what you wish for. [/QUOTE]
