[QUOTE="Pump Up The Volume, post: 564730, member: 22238"] In my opinion none of this is about "leveling the playing field". If anything it's all about dismantling the teamsters and leveling UPS to FedEx. It's years of planning in the making. Bottomline, it's a step toward passing the burden of paying for retirement and healthcare on to the hourlies. It's pretty obvious when our sales people recommend FedEx Freight as an alternative to Yellow or when UPS Freight doesn't pay into our retirement it's about bleeding the pensions. What happens' when Yellow closes their doors and 40,000 will start collecting pensions? Who cares about organizing FedEx ground? Big Deal. What would motivate any of those FedEx "air" guys to go union. They don't do half the work we do, put up with half the stuff we do, and as a whole aren't nearly as grumpy as most UPS drivers [/QUOTE]
