[QUOTE="qdg2, post: 5613023, member: 100309"] Why? Most have it pretty good(six or near figures)...especially "legacy" folks and full-timers in general. Wouldn't want to upset that.....that's his theory anyway. He did talk about excessive overtime and generally the issues talked about here. Like bidding and transfers and such. BTW, this guy has worked for UPS and Fed-Ex as a consultant. He did say Fed-Ex has been crappy profit-wise. And didn't think they(FDX) could handle any of the extra volume from a strike. He also said anything more than a week would be catastrophic to the industry and the economy in general.......he used the word "catastrophic several times. He did say that generally FDX hasn't stolen away volume with scare tactics...generally. '97 was talked about some. He did say that UPS is basically twice as big as it was in '97 and has been super profitable for several years....only crappy lately. He did say Tome' is an excellent CEO and that will get the negotiations through without a strike.....his words. [/QUOTE]
