[QUOTE="Frankie's Friend, post: 3879425"] That sounds like a good hypothesis but looking at it from the other side of the fence I will say that NO hourly employee wanted to be put on HMOs and we sure as heck did not trust the company to make our compensation "performance based". There was enough animosity left over from years of abusive supervision for those two issues alone to make us open to a work stoppage. The company took the first swing and that's where the divorce proceedings started. Not all management was abusive but there was enough of them over the years that even being "self directed" and a "team" didnt diminish the ridiculous two issues (with increased subcontracting) above offered. A swing and a strike. If the company had gotten the pension away from the Teamsters they probably wouldn't have had to go public...at least for a while. [/QUOTE]
