[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 5396347, member: 49065"] You are forgetting about those UPS stores and access points, the Company has been gutting the Buildings’s Customer Counters for decades who for the most part are manned by teamster members. Saying that all this talk about the “Company Contingency Plans” is just saber rattling. We are still 10 months away from the deadline, proposals have not been made yet. If there was a decision to oust the Union it would of been done decades ago. A lot can happen in those 10 months. The economy can tank, inflation will still be in play, the stock market can crash, even another War somewhere. All those factors including the Midterms will be in play. Right now the Union is sitting pretty and from what I been hearing O’Brien is not asking for anything outlandish. From the Company side I do not see them pushing the deadline to 1 August, they want this one settled big time as early as possible. Look they are gutting their own by reducing what they call redundant departments and subcontracting them out to gods knows. Their stock had doubled from the outset of this pandemic, profits are up, they can put any price on their shipping currently and not be worried about losing business because the other common carriers are doing the same thing.
