[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 233576, member: 9859"] I still have fond memories of the one day strike we had concerning over 70 lbs pkgs and no language in our contract reguarding safety handling, proper equipment and requesting help with no retribution. Must be around the earlier 90's, anyway, my picture and a few other co-workers was printed on the front page of the local newspaper in our area carrying "on- strike" billboards. Mngmt was also taking Polarized pictures of everyone( digital wasn't around those days). Boy, was I ever a target after that.....like being on the most wanted list. I survived the bombardment but some of my co-workers did not. If I remember correctly this over 70 lb service was imposed on us soon after a ratified contract year. To make a long story short,there was an agreement the next day to install new language in our agreement reguarding over 70lb pkgs. With foresight ,this could of been avoided. [/QUOTE]
