[QUOTE="futile process, post: 3810410, member: 63838"] I actually work at ups freight. And many of my fellow employees are freightened, by what the company did and the unions complete lack of leadership. In 2013 the first contract vote was as follows 6141 voted by mail. 1897 YES vs.4244 no 2013 2nd contract vote was as follows 7329 voted in person. 5222 voted YES and 2107 voted no. 3325 more voted YES on 2nd offer than first and 2137 no votes on first contact vote, switched to YES on 2nd vote. That is the data. And it will be similar on this upcoming vote also, because the situation is even more serious than it was in 2013. Many employees thought parcel would be striking with us and we could picked at small pack. That rumor was debunked by the conference call friday night. Parcel will continue to operate as normal and freight will be hung out to dry, with no plan of attack and no chance of success. The majority of employees know that a strike is a hopeless folly, that will lead to UPS closing the doors on the company. The only thing I've heard from any employee that is pro strike is, I dont care if the company closes down, I'll get a different job. That kind of talk is swinging more employees to YES, because any clear thinking person knows that is financial suicide. Normal people don't choose suicide over life. Only members of cults do, the cult of no will be soundly defeated. The YES vote will prevail. [/QUOTE]
