Rail strike

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

Yep that’s what I was saying, The fact that the Biden administration stepped in and pushed it through does not mean the workers will except it.

If the railways quit moving that's going to put a big hurting on UPS

Would that Golden Goose be UPS? The one that puts PVDs and Coyotes on the road? That Golden Goose? The one that has supervisors doing hourly work everywhere? Got it.

i missed your comment on Amazon a competitor paying their drivers 15 an hour and getting ready to steal your work?

as for the rest of your crying about UPS I had a picture hanging in my office that I'll show you . Its REA express rusting in a junk yard. We hung up it up in our office to remind us against complacency. To remind us to never strangle the golden goose.

Crying? Lol. Pointing out the obvious. Don't pretend UPS doesn't get away with these things. But of course- been going out of business since the doors opened...

He lives in upstate New York so that's a big part of the problem....

Time off was the issue, it was not addressed. No guarantee it will pass.

I honestly don’t think
It will and I don’t think it’ll be close.
They keep crowing 24% raise. Well 14% is for the last 3 years they didn’t get a raise.

If ups didn’t make every day at work so miserable most wouldn’t hate it like they do.

Almost no one takes the job hating it. The company turns them that way.

I also believe the company will do everything reasonable to avoid a strike.

A 1997 UPS was a private company, now it's a public company and we all work for the shareholders.

Haven't forbid if there was a strike in it crushed the stock price

My concern is this guy is too militant. You can go the other extreme!

ok and you stayed and decided to be miserable . And you blame UPS?
we all had a hard job to do. Most people i worked with were not the debbie downers you guys are.

And the last administration we have in office they let as they pleased with us

 

[newfie]

this guy is happy at UPS

 

[Pullman Brown]

Yep. And I agree that sometimes you need cold water thrown in your face to wake you up! UPS has gotten very comfortable with past administration’s weakness! But don’t go out already with your mind made up no matter what! Emotions always cloud good judgment!

Lol textbook management response. No one forcing you to be here. Quit if you don’t like it.

Or ya know since I am part of a union. I choose to stay and collectively bargain to try and make things better for thOse that come after me.



This place isn’t anything like it was when you were here. I know. I’ve been here 20 years. Things have gotten progressively worse.

....and let the employees hold the private stock so we can watch it split like rabbits.

Does this help?
