[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 73271, member: 484"] Getting back to the picket conversation, what do they hope to gain by "informational picketing" That is what the Jehovah Witness, Hari Krishnas, and Mormons do, it's such a turn on for so many people.. I can see it now, I am in a big hurry, cause Ive waited to the last minute to shop and send. This guy in a uniform opens the door at the UPS store for me and asks if I am interested in listening to his problems with his boss. Not getting paid enough, pension sucks, the divorce rate is high because we are never home, and my company does not appreciate what I do for them. (kinda sounds like the driver's lot, doesn't it?) So what are your wages? Well we make into the 6 figures, and I own a house at the lake close to the airport, and one in Florida. And that Lexus out there , its two years old, I need a newer one. And my wife is in need of a boob job, its life or death. So you see my position in life, I need your support. What are you going to suggest as support, they take the packages to fedex? What are you guys hoping to gain, public support? Its not like it was in 97 when the economy was great and the teamsters put on poster children employees that were trying to raise a family of 3 on $8.50 an hour. That went over with the American public because they could identify with that. Saying you cant do it on $175,000 a year because someone else makes more........Well good luck selling that one. Don't get me wrong, I hope you are successful in your quest for what ever it is you are going picketing over. After all you are at the wheel of a 30 million dollar peice of equipment. But your methodology and timing is sadly lacking intelligence. d PS Anybody know what the pilot and crew make that flies Airforce 1? [/QUOTE]
