The mindset some people have is curious. Some want to Strike no matter what. These are called negotiations for a reason.

Members need to realize the contract is being negotiated for the whole of the membership.
You couldn't possibly address everyone's personal pet peeves.
I don't think they realize how serious this is

Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.
Once you go on strike all bets are off. You have no idea how or when it will end. It’s the law of unintended consequences then. It’s not something anyone should take lightly.

This worked well for the current contractSorry for any punctuation problems , English was not my best subject and unfortunately all of my schools were in the "hood" , as I was raised in the inner city . But I think the message is pretty clear , "LET'S KICK THEIR'S " !!!! Folks need/should not hesitate to arm our weak
This is our livelihood, our career ,our families depend on us as we depend on our Union negotiators/leadership . And while I'm trying to refrain from bringing Trump/politics into this I do understand past history as to which party usually supports Union's and it's not the one I voted for this go around ,but like I said in the original post , Trump already gave the tax cuts out , he should as a business man foresee that the employees should reap some of the reward like all the other company's have done for the most part . But watch and see in typical UPS fashion ,they will say they cannot pass out any monetary bonuses because our contract does not allow it , which is total "b.S.

My bad not 4 only 3
One in jump seat 2 in cargo area
Only lasted for an hour then somebody came and picked 2 of them up
Of course. I just don't see the company voluntarily paying all drivers more and sacrifice millions in revenue just because we as for it.

It won’t be because we asked for it, it’s is because we are demanding better working conditions for all Teamsters, and pay based off our labor and success of the company. We can use the power of of a couple hundred thousand Teamsters willing to do what is necessary and sticking together .This is the beauty of a bargaining unit this big. I do like the enthusiasm but I say we wait and see what the first offer is before we decide.
Of course. I totally agree that's the only way it will change. Could Biden hypothetically prevent UPS from striking?

Don’t get what he did with the railroads confused with us. There was a democrat president last time we struck. They did not interfere, other than encourage us just to go back to the table together and negotiate.
I get that. But times are much different than in 1997.

Yeah, I think we had more GDP then then we do now. I don’t see the Biden administration, stepping in for quite some time if it even get that far.
