[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 3560321, member: 14596"] Ok, I get it Overnight was seriously anti-union. As I said, I believe that is one reason UPS went that direction. I will admit to being completely ignorant about Overnight until the announcement of the purchase in '05. At that time I was on assignment working with SCS and I remember being excited when the merger was announced because the logistics full service offerings SCS was trying to provide had one huge weakness, LTL freight. Remember, the leadership in 2005 was still smarting from what it considered a betrayal by it's employees and the union in 97. SCS was holding training classes back then to train management on ways to prevent organizing efforts in the subsidiaries. But then in 08 a deal was cut to organize UPS Freight in return for an exit from the corporation killing Central states pension. Since that time, the people that had previously been Overnight scabs, were now UPS Freight teamsters. They've been your brothers for 10 years. You've got to let the bitterness go. [/QUOTE]
