[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 412081, member: 927"] First, I'm glad that you got a contract negotiated that you are happy with. There is no question that collective bargaining is good for the employee. Second, I also support your right to have union employees do union work. If management does the work (without special circumstances), you should get a settlement. What I don't understand is how "U.P.S had previously fought for and purchased a giant loophole in U.S ERISA laws". Of course, UPS has PAC money. I support UPSPAC and will continue to give to that PAC. The UPS PAC is about $2.7M. The Teamster PAC is over 3 times that amount (closer to 4 times). How did UPS buy congressman? I had a chance to be in Washington with our public affairs people about that time. I got to talk with a few congressman, and yes UPS was discussing our position with them. Guess what? The congressman said that they were weighing all sides. I heard that first hand. The Teamsters were telling them your side of the story with your PAC money. Maybe the lawmakers just made the decision they thought best at the time?? P-Man [/QUOTE]
