[QUOTE="interested, post: 53203"] Tie, I was just talking about the strike with two of my colleagues who are relatively new to Ups. I had been Brown for about four years at that time. The thing that I always found strange, even to this day, was that Ups had no contingency plan in place for a work stoppage. It was just a mad scramble to contact customers, clear the packages from the buildings and have management on the street providing what service we could. I remember asking a senior manager why there was no action plan in place for a strike and his answer was, "It has never happened before this" Quantas airlines have never had a major air disaster, but you can bet they have a plan in case there is an incident. Trained flight crews, emergency oxygen, flotation device under the seat etc. I never understood how we could be the largest employer of the most volatile union in the history of organized labor and not have an action plan for a strike. I bet we have one now. [/QUOTE]
