[QUOTE="FED UPs, post: 877310, member: 37164"] The best and simplest way I know how to answer your question is this and maybe im wrong about UPS having more opportunities but for me its about the "Union", do the purple zombies think union is the way to go? Not too many...I spoke with a courier about 3mths ago and he said what do you need a union for?.. My response was I hope you never have to find out. I know You have strength in numbers with union,you have bargaining power. As an individual you have little or no influence.Unions have prefossional negotiators,advocates and millions of members in your corner. Without a union your employer can change policies and working conditions whenever they feel like it. With a Union you get a contract without a contract. Your union contract rights cannot be altered at your employers whim. If you are fired,reprimanded,suspended without just cause you have the union to go up to bat for you.I believe more Respect and Fairness is present in union work. Joining a union means job security. When crunch time comes Unions usually can make sure that the experienced and committed workers are protected first. Like I said earlier I work for Express and I am greatful to be workin and have had no trouble so far but If I ever got the chance to do the same job and be in the union well.... If you read any of this I would hope you could comprehend that this is what i meant by "more opportunity" and Id take it and hit the ground running. [/QUOTE]
