[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 1028664, member: 9789"] TOS you should honestly go work for the Chicago campaign. You can take your posts and print them and show them how you see things. They will hire you in a minute flat. You can sight anything you want. I lived it. I watched companies go broke because they couldn't pay the wages that their unions DEMANDED. Then the hidden costs of the pension funds started to kick in. UPS was the company taking the brunt of the costs when companies started to go broke. UPS was finally able to break free from the stranglehold of the pension funds at a dear cost to company assets and our own Teamster employees. California is well documented Stockton is well documented Many others will start to surface because there are people like you that just don't get it! Bush - NAFTA HA HA HA - very amusing!

OH BTW - I believe in a balanced effort between union and companies to ensure that a company will continue to be around in the future to pay the fair wages and benefit packages that all employees deserve. Kool-aid drinkers see "LOST THE WAR" and think I am against unions. NOT! Losing the war is a reference to companies going broke and now the employees (union members) are left in the cold to fend for themselves. [B]Hardline union members[/B] forget that it is the company that pays for all wages and benefits. If the company can't reinvest in itself because of high labor costs , then it will eventually collapse. Substitute city or government for the word company in the above paragraph! [/QUOTE]
