[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4316362, member: 63706"] We almost certainly wouldn't have those things without the Union negotiating for them. That doesn't mean we don't earn them or deserve them. I agree with the OP that member involvement is a leadership issue, something the Union needs to work on. I think most members who are uninvolved are so because they are unaware of what goes on behind the scenes, what it takes to secure their compensation and enforce contracts. Most UPS members' only interaction with the union, that they are aware of, is having their dues taken out of their checks. Yet, we all deal with management day in and day out, and most members rely on their relationship with management in order to navigate their careers successfully. They'll believe what management tells them because they don't realize they have a choice, or that they should even question anything. [/QUOTE]
