[QUOTE="Dracula, post: 2335771, member: 42691"] I'm sure some are, but we can see packages going out our hub doors with UPS Freight trailers. Ask someone here that works out of CACHIL, or out of Louisville. It's happening everywhere. There are grievances being filed nationwide over this issue. The fact is, when our freight is being moved by subcontractors outside of the peak periods specified in the Master agreement, our international has the power to stop it almost immediately by telling the company it is strikeable offense, just like the company could fire anyone involved in a wildcat strike. Having said that, we don't have to strike, but the mere threat would put enormous pressure on the company to stop subcontracting. That is something that should be dealt with on the national level. Unfortunately, that isn't being done. And frankly, this is an issue that threatens everyone here. [/QUOTE]
