[QUOTE="Sammie, post: 262378, member: 8657"] For what it's worth with sixty plus years of UPS time in this household, Ron Carey came up through the ranks. An army man, a driver, a steward, a business agent, and president of the Teamsters in 1991. I call that a success story. I think the trouble started when he beat out Hoffa for the position again in 1996. Carey is a working man, Hoffa is a lawyer. Go figure. Which of these men has ever put in an honest day of work? Whose father was a hugely influential criminal with ties to the under ground, convicted of attempted [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bribery"][COLOR=black]bribery[/COLOR][/URL]of a grand juror? And you can honestly tell me that Daddy's influences didn't land Jimmy P. where he is today? Carey used no one to get as far as he got. Hoffa's smear campaign against Carey didn't work. Carey wasn't indicted. Remember when you all won greviences under Carey's leadership? Remember when you didn't get fired for a fatality that the police didn't even charge you for? Or for looking the wrong way at somebody? The union is not nearly as strong as it once was and I don't think I'm going to blame Carey for that. [/QUOTE]
