[QUOTE="Steward773, post: 1135092, member: 12275"] 1. Whether it comes to health care or pension benefits and even supplemental language, parts of the country have it better/worse than others. As long as it is like this, we will never negotiate a contract with monumental gains. This is a classic 'divide and conquer' technique. We will not beat our enemy if we are fighting ourselves. The answer always lies somewhere in the middle. 2. Personal responsibility. I was guilty of this when I drove. I made so much money I could buy anything I wanted when I wanted. I took a 22.3 job and learned to budget my life better, you never know what the future may bring. 3. We are not fighting only UPS, we are fighting the other non-Union delivery companies. We will never see huge gains in a contract until Fed Ex is organized and the playing field is leveled. This contract(TA) is not front page news....neither great or horrible. I believe that if everyone would focus on the points above we could negotiate a great contract, if more and more of you ignore these points the future contracts will become horrible, or even worse there will be no Union left.
