[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1180924, member: 17969"] What i find disturbing about this current state of our negotiations is the complete "disconnect" between the IBT and the members. In the begining of the year, there were rallies, fist pumping, promises and calls for unity. Today, the IBT is hiding from us. Even our own local leaders ( in the southwest) are hiding from us. For example, here in local 396, it has been a month and our local has yet to call a meeting for our UPSers to discuss the reasons we rejected the master, rider and supplemental agreements. Its as if they are not concerned why. Sure, they know insurance is a big part, but what about our other concerns? They simply ran and hid, as they wait for the IBT to attempt to fix everything. Where are the rallies? Where are the big speeches? Where is the constant communication? Where are the appearances by the top IBT brass ? Instead, if they dont like what someone is saying, they send a letter home to threaten that person. Well, we have the ability to write as well, and its time to write to the IBT and demand they come out of hiding and answer to our concerns. Its time to write to the IBT and tell HOFFA/HALL that we will vote them out in the next election cycle if they dont get on the same page with us. Nobody has the greater power to threaten than us the members. Now, I know that Hoffa is talking about retiring before the next election, but in case he doesnt, he has to know that 340K UPS Teamster are unhappy with this performance. Same for K.Hall. Pick up a pen, or email the IBT and show your voice. Peace TOS [/QUOTE]
