The union that represents the water and gas company here has it better.

What business is UPS getting into? I really really want to know.

I'm not going to argue about this.

I have been reading their business statements for years.They are getting more and more into logistics , increasing their real estate holdings and investing into robotics among other things. Several years ago they even stated \that manpower costs were unsustainable in the the future and it was the companies responsibility to diversify more and more.

do your own homework.

Nothing happens over night but to get our foot in the door with amazon would be good for the Teamsters in my opinion.

Yeah every union meeting I’ve been to for 15 years has said we’re making inroads at organizing wal mart too. Lmao

Medical logistics company Marken is one. Specialty medical field has huge profits

Does it matter, though? I suspect that in time, top heavy corporate unions like the IBT will be long gone. And honestly it's a long time coming. Amazon running each facility as it's own business would be beneficial to grassroots organizing, instead of again, top-heavy parasites. And then and only then the RTW assault may be slowed down.

You’re not actually this dumb are you?

Without question, but they are generally skilled trade labor..

Don’t you guys think this is why UpS is dragging it’s feet when it comes to new hires? I swear, they have been setting guys up to fail their packets since earlier this year, and I continue to read about centers unable to hire FT drivers.
I think UPS is afraid that on one day soon, Amazon will cut the cord.
What a glorious day that will be. I feel bad for the new guys, but I know over 20 routes in my center so I’m gooooood.

So, you think because you know 20 routes you won’t get laid off

You realize layoffs are by seniority don’t you

Lol

Doesn't matter how many routes you know, it's how much seniority do you have?

I'm just messing with you. Though my cousins a electrician and he complains all the time about his union. I'm sure it's different for each company just like teamsters and UPS.

We have so many high seniority guys that would work 1 day a week of possible...I have never once had trouble finding a route when I’m on lay-off. That’s how I know the routes, just jump in and go do it once
