[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 719537, member: 12508"] It's very hard to accept your reasoning, which I find to be flawed and nearly always pro-FedEx, even when your best interests are apparently not being served. One of the big reasons UPS went on strike in 1997 was the abuse of part-timers, which is rampant at FedEx. That issue was at least partially resolved, and a satisfactory contract was negotiated. UPS chose the length of the strike, not the employees. While it's true UPS has more cash reserves, there's an easy way for Fred S to avoid a strike in the first place...negotiate a contract. Heck, he can even avoid the union altogether if he wants to, but he's too damned cheap. Lower top-outs, improve the retirement plan, and institute a legitimate grievance process and presto...no Teamsters. Here's what you don't get, and the writing is plainly on the wall. Fred wants us to be like WalMart employees..underpaid and ignorant. He won't do the "right" thing because he thinks he can still get away with keeping things just the way they are now. He already thinks we've got it too good. [/QUOTE]
