[QUOTE="705red, post: 366457, member: 5229"] I have ups friends in 804 and what really pissed me off is when you guys got your pension cut. You remember when howie promised that he didnt care what the national did 804 was going to strike ups for sabotaging the trustee vote. That really stirred up the local and support for him. What did he do next and i saw the video of the contract proposal meeting when he stated "its not a great contract, its not a good contract, but its a fair contract" he was all talk. He even turned the mic off on the members as they were speaking. Now thats what i call fat lazy and content. Go to your meeting! I get frustrated when people (union officials) forget the reason they are in power. Im not made because howie didnt strike im pissed because he didnt have the stones to call it as he saw it. This isnt the late 70s 80s or early 90s were you have to kiss but and do what your told to to stay working for the union. We our lucky that we have language were we can go back to our original jobs if the union gig doesnt workout. That was put in by carey early 90s so you could step up against the wrongs that were going on without fear of having no employment to fall back on.It was to right the ship and hold people accountable.
