He picked Hall to be in charge of Package but Ron didnt have to be told things about UPS policies. Ron Carey knew the business and how to negotiate. Ron only did on the national level WHAT HE DID FOR US FOR DECADES IN OUR LOCAL:  he  PUT MEMBERS FIRST!! He made promises, listened to the membership and never sold us out!!  Whatever hall might (??) have learned from Ron, he certainly forgot by 2002 and the others.  So it seems we need a change at the top.  Its time to do what we all here on the cafe do:  REFRESH the page!!</blockquote>
