Who the *$#@ cares.
A good friend of mine has been working as a casual feeder driver for approx 2 yrs now, if no one is familar with casuals, they fill in during peak, then are laid off beginning of year then come back for vacations then laid off in october then, cycle again.
At any rate...he informed me last night that he received a call from the dispatcher, lets just say this dispatchers name is "John" and my friends name is "Tom". (real names left out) Here was the conversation.
Tom - "Hello?"
John - "Hey Tom how you doing? I was wondering if you received your ballot in the mail yet?"
Tom - "No John, im not a Union member."
John - "Well you pay dues don't you?"
Tom - "No I do not Tom Im just a casual driver."
John - "Well that doesnt matter...We need you to vote!"
Tom - "Ummm...Okay..."
John - "Give me your address and I will get a ballot out to you. and ofcourse we need you to vote 'yes' please."
---------------------------------------------------
As you can see the company is trying to "CHEAT" (if you will) the system that is in place, and HOW? i do not know yet but im calling my local today and voicing my opinion.
Whether or not they are trying to scheme the casuals into thinking if they vote 'yes' maybe they will make me fulltime, or whatever i dont know but im very concerned over how they (UPS) is getting ballots to NONPAYING UNION MEMBERS!
It really erks me off!
