[QUOTE="20yearvet, post: 211098, member: 10161"] I was a supervisor during the 97 strike. Not only was I sent to an operation that I knew nothing about nor the area, but was expected to load the trucks, deliver and wait to make sure all was done. We received loads throughout the duration and did our best to keep up with the volume. The first day there were 4 drivers in the larger town I was delivering. By the end, I was the only one and delivering the entire city. Strikes work for no one, especially after last time. Dependant upon the results of the negotiations, I see no reason for another. There is too much to lose. DHL, USPS, Fedex Ground and Express can handle what we have now (or close enough) and we could lose it all. Again, wait for the end of negotiations to make sure it's fair, but remember that we can be replaced. [/QUOTE]
