Teamsters bosses resist calls to reopen UPS contract after 'no' vote

[PT Car Washer]

Nah boys, I'm not angry. I just get tired of redundant rhetoric.
And trolls.

Talk about redundant rhetoric.

I'm sorry if you are having a hard time. Hang in there. I know life is hard sometimes but it gets better. Everyone goes through ups and downs.

I feel much better now that your sincerity has flowed thru my computer screen, down onto the floor, and the cat licked it up.

At least I have brought up your spirits. I hate to see people go through hard times. Stay strong.

Yeah. We're making it happen. You stay strong. I hate seeing people struggle.

I like it. It seems like my good attitude rubbed off. Glad to see you come around. Life's is to short.

That's why so many dont qualify? Glad you cleared that up.

the vast majority of those who don't qualify are black-listed by management from the get-go, are not "good" drivers by nature, or too old/slow which somewhat relates to being black-listed. (discrimination). None of these are extraordinary skills jmo

thanks for thanking me for clearing it up

There is a driver in my center who has been diagnosed on the low spectrum of autism. He does the job well.

And most of our pters are more interested in thisView attachment 218270maybe we should have went out to the parking lots on break or Saturday morning where these kids toke up and sold the contract to them out there....

I mean what do you expect when most part timers don't make what the pimple faced kids at In-N-Out make?

Not true here.
While in certain cases of chronic aggressive behavior the company may take a dim view of an employee qualifying and meeting the general public as a driver our management team does everything they can to help candidates qualify.

This thread has dissolved into a few Union officials trying to do damage control by agreeing with themselves! Its like watching a Laurel and Hardy show!

Laurel and Hardy was funny stuff.
These people...? It's a sad commentary.

Out of the drivers I work with not even 10% have a collage degree. I can't say for sure but I know there are some without a high school diploma.

Just a GED here

The proper next step would have been renegotiation and a re-vote. But the Union leadership betrayed the membership. Nobody was suggesting an immediate strike. Her point is moot.

This “Well, we couldn’t strike after the first vote because of the participation rate” talk is nothing but a distraction from the betrayal. UPS was ready to keep talking. National Teamster leadership was not.

The talk that the Union couldn’t do anything is a load of . Don’t let those little ers fool you.

To add to that, right after getting strike authorization they granted an indefinite extension. They were more nervous about having a strike than the company.

Did you catch the news announcement that the Teamsters put a hard date on the extension?


I guess since UPS spent $2 billion on Coyote Logistics UPS Freight Teamsters are superfluous to Dennis Taylor and Hoffa Jr.?

I actually saw a part timer smoking weed while loading. No bs. This was last week!!!!

Very unprofessional. The smell is unbearable to me.
