Thanks for proving Upssocks's point.

Well first of all the current board spent the past 5 yrs or so on it. And the second point is that everyone will have a chance to vote yes or no on the current TA or not vote at all. I think we are owed this choice after waiting for so long.

Are you taking advice from UPSsocks or even taking him seriously?
You should learn from guys like Upssocks. Don't think for a minute that management won't take full advantage of this TA's weak scope. Theres a reason your Sup is pushing the TA so hard....and it's not because your getting 50 bucks an hour.
Upssux your brownone was crying the IBT would be the failure of ups. My point is that ups could really make money if they had the lift. That's what problem, people like you are running the business and not maximizing revenue. FDX is still flying B727s full of freight, who's the smarter? Who's stock is at 1999 IPO price?

We actually do have a big decision UPSSOCKS, vote yes on a contract that will pay us 130-150 grand a year(with a little OT), don't have to pay a penny for our healthcare, big ass retro check, 50 buck a month after 25 yrs for insurance in retirement, ete ete ete. No vote. Stike, everyone hates the mechanics blah blah blah. But we keep our jobs in the states. Big fight was not being the first teamsters to pay for healthcare. we won. Now we'll pass to the groundside teamsters on their next contract. Good Luck.
The re-vote really has nothing to do with the TA Contract that is to be voted on.
Sorry I'm a no vote. until they get rid of the the split shift's, i'll be voteing no. Plus i wouldnt count on no strike. we go, so do the pilot's and ALL fellow teamsters. that's just the way it is. teamsters dont cross picket lines. So i know why you want us to vote yes. You dont what to get into your browns again and get spit on delivering packages.
We may all agree to go on strike but it doesn't matter if we don't ever get released to go on strike. Everyone knows that it is almost if not impossible for a company this large that affects so much of the commerce to go on strike that is regulated by the RLA. The rest of the teamsters not under RLA can go on strike at midnight of the expiration, that is why their contract is done before that. And then that is why our's is still going some 4 years later. It is an outdated obsolete law which has been governing us since 1926 and one that big corporations fight to keep in place. Plus look at all the labor issues going on with state employees right now, the Obama administration is trying to distance itself so far from that they would not even be anywhere close to releasing us (if it ever got that far). How about all those Teamsters contributions to the Democratic fund, think they want that money back yet?
