[QUOTE="10 point, post: 1551068, member: 52520"] A very prominent and well-known business agent (throughout the US) told me that the bargaining unit employees make a lot of mistakes. That statement and how it was conveyed showed me that somehow in his mind the 200,000 Plus employees at United Parcel Service were painted with the same brush. Does that lead to a biased mentality that the business agents have to step in to "save" us all from ourselves? The odds are greater that the hourly have more opportunity to make mistakes just because of the vast number of employees and the way society is today. And yes, the steward and the locals don't always get the whole story from the employee first time around. That's human nature and it's wrong. But if the employee does not trust the BA or steward they're much less likely to share all the information with them. They pick their poison when weighing out the odds. [/QUOTE]
