[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 748368, member: 12508"] Fred would be a lot more comfortable with national work actions because he has a much better chance of not having a union happen in the first place. Localized work actions make sense because we live in a very divided country. If you live in a "right to work" state, are politically conservative, and do not want a union, you and your co-workers who have the same philosophy don't have to go union. Believe it or not, I'm absolutely OK with you and your station staying non-union if that's what you want. At my station, about 85% of the employees would sign a card, and most would probably love to burn Smith in effigy out in the parking lot. The fact that we strongly desire a union shouldn't force you to think the same way. When we walk-out, you and your buddies can keep the company going. Probably not, right? This is the real issue because FedEx knows that the big cities are more than ready to go union. That will force Fred to the table because the volume going through LAX, EWR or OAK dwarfs anything coming-out of BFE ( Bum **** Egypt). These are the workers that will shut down the belt, park their CTV's or refuse to unload the aircraft....not you. All Smith has ever had to do was be fair, and he's consistently proven he's incapable of it. I'm not looking to ruin FedEx, but the time for taking a stand is long overdue. Like I said, stay non-union if that's what you want, but get out of the way of the rest of us. [/QUOTE]
