[QUOTE="OrionsBitch, post: 3547310, member: 65132"] A successful strike will come down to marketing. If we can make the public see it's about long hours, working conditions, and treatment they will back us. But if UPS spends more and shows how well paid we are you can forget about a public backing. You've got to play on emotions to win. Example: " Because of long hours UPS workers don't get to see their kids grow up." "Harsh working environments lead to a high percentage of UPS drivers receiving work related/career ending injuries and surgery. With UPS threatening to take benefits this will cause thousands of employees to be left crippled without a job." "Management is trained to harrass employees and threaten their lively hood to increase production." Gotta get stuff out there like that. The public will eat that :censored: for breakfast lunch and dinner. But if all they here is UPS drivers make x amount if dollars, well they will pretty much day "they make way more than me so :censored: them." [/QUOTE]
