[QUOTE="Inthegame, post: 2662912, member: 37112"] Check your timeline. No member voted no on anything in May of 2013. Against what? How did the steward know what was in the proposal? The T/A hadn't even been voted on at the "Two-person Committee Review" (May 7, 2013 10 AM EST) yet and this guy was passing a vote no petition? Anyone who ever served on any negotiations with UPS understands it is not a walk in the park. On May 7, 2013 both sides felt they had worked out an equitable offer, after many months of talks. To have a union steward, who theoretically holds some sway over their work groups, try to convince others a better contract was available with no knowledge of what was in the first offer (that hadn't even been accepted by Local Officers yet) would very likely cause anyone on that committee to be frustrated. Again, very few knew what was in the T/A on May 7, 2013 so how were "many" members legitimately against it? Do you see no chance the LM was looking for someone to explain the T/A to the steward? Maybe wait until the two-man approves the T/A and people read what's in it before a vote no campaign starts? Anyway, if they really wanted to "shut him up" they've shown a propensity to unjustly fire folks in that building. Why not the "kook"? SO had no intention of talking to a steward from another local. By "taking care of it" what did SO do? I'm on a ledge here but I'd bet you a paycheck all he did was call the PO of the local and told him what was happening (or pass on that top secret assignment to Keith B). End of SO's involvement in Watergate II. Even easier when you add the timetable, common sense and a little experience in the mix. [/QUOTE]
