[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 4888149, member: 14596"] The '97 company pension proposal was to create a plan for UPS members controlled jointly by reps from the company and the union. That plan could not have given the company "total control" of the pensions when they would need IBT agreement to make any changes to it. "97 was just a con to take the pension" is just pure IBT cool aide and utter bs. UPS had an 80% market share of small package delivered circa '97. It's now around 40%. If there's a better turning point, let me know. To be honest, the market share was higher than 80 prior to 97, it was already falling, due to cost to serve. Don't get me wrong, I'm not poor UPS, boo hoo ing in the slightest. The company is making plenty of money. Their days of being THE dominate player in the US small package delivery company are numbered, if not already over. 22.4s give some flexibility, they do not come close to providing 24/7 delivery, and 24/7 is pretty close to what the market is going to be demanding soon.
