hall has negotiated a great life for me. I appreciate what he's done for me.
If people can't see hall worth, then they are just being ignorant.

That's one of the things I don't like about tduers......do I want more money better Healthcare and a better pension.....of course everyone does.....but hoffa/hall gave us a good life......if hoffa/hall got us $5/hr raise the best Healthcare in the country and $10k a month pension the tduers would still be crying and complaining that they want more......they will never be happy
It's because they are not happy with themselves. If you can't live a good life on 100k, excellent medical and a pension, your doing something wrong.
Folks, that's what happens when you settle for mediocrity. You accept weak contracts that UPS offers. You accept split raises as acceptable. You accept an underfunded Teamcare. You accept weak language on technology and allow Sure Post and Access Point,etc which basically is outsourcing. Then when certain locals express their rightful dissatisfaction with elements of the contract, it is imposed on them!!
Sure you make a lot of money but you probably work 50-60 hrs a week. Hall didnt make that money for you...you earned it yourself. In fact I dont see any evidence of actual negotiating by Hall: the contract looks like something UPS offered and Hoffa/Hall just accepted. They accept it because they have become house slaves who wait around for the crumbs that UPS allows them and sells it to us field slaves as Prime Rib.
This membership will not be fooled any longer. Informed members will not accept mediocrity any longer. It's not just UPS Teamsters...it is Carhaulers, Mechanics, Public Sector, etc. No one is happy with the current "leadership".
The only question seems to be whether the rank and file will stick with a weak, tired leadership that they know or vote the bums out and vote for needed change that they do not know.
So let's hear an outline of what Tim will get us?
How much in raises?
How much in health?
How much in sustainable pension?
I want specifics. The floor is yours.

That isn't the answer. I want Tim to tell us what he will get us. Locally, TDU negotiates horrible contracts.

Slaves???
Have you seen a ups parking lot lately?? I have yet to hear a union guy that has said we aren't paid well!! You are way out of line to use such verbiage to attempt to make a point!! Slave is inappropriate and unacceptable language to use in modern society for teamsters!! Your attempting to rebel rouse

He may be but micromanaging is a violation of the contract, thus the term "slave'. After a certain point they can't pay me enough, my time is worth more than time and a half, unlike you I have a life outside UPS
I wouldn't put it past Tim.
That's why you get triple time for 9.5
