[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1322389, member: 17969"] I am no fan of TDU. I dont subscribe to their meetings or propaganda. I dont judge it either. TDU does have its good points and bad points. But, our argument isnt about TDU. Our argument is that our current leadership failed to negotiate a fair contract on our behalfs. It knew in advance that it was going to use the nuclear option, but let us all vote over and over until they ran out of attempts. NOT once, since the "90/9/09" rallies has HALL /HOFFA come to visit any hub and gauge how we were feeling. Additionally, the company remained completely silent, NOT ONCE putting any pressure on the teamsters to get the contract done. Together, they screwed us. Some harder than others.(progression 4 years) No matter who runs against HALL or HOFFA, I will vote for them just to remove the both of them from office. We have 5 years to develope a game plan for 2018 and including HALL/HOFFA would be a ginormous mistake. If a TDU candidate is the best option against HALL/HOFFA, then they will have my vote. Regardless of that outcome, there will be another election just prior to the expiration of the next contract and if the TDU candidates cant handle the job, then we vote them out next. Its about change. CHANGE "WE" CAN BELIEVE IN. "WE" have the power to make change.. "WE" failed to communicate to HALL/HOFFA what the ramifications would be if they screwed us. "WE" now have time to make sure they hear us all the way to the unemployment line. TOS. [/QUOTE]
