the problem is an us vs. them mentality. The contract is only good for compensation in most parts of the county. It falls far short when compared to state laws and the policy book.

I don't disagree, the pension and benefits are quite a bit better in terms of disparity in that argument. However I don't see many FedEx Express drivers out there stressing because their trucks are blown out or etc. FedEx Express drivers can also transfer around the U.S. correct me if I'm wrong, which isn't possible as a Teamster.

No, haven’t had an issue that needed to be addressed a second time.

I would argue that us vs them mentality is better than everyone for themselves and sucking up to management.

I agree. Let's vote for less pay and more hours so that way our CEO can triple his pay to look more attractive to our shareholders and we can keep our jobs. Hell, maybe the contract after this one we can vote for a 401k.
Are you a disgruntled supervisor? This doesn't sound like a union employee filing grievances on the daily. Nobody is buying into your divide and conquer tactics.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Can we vote for the 401k this contract? Sooner the better

What makes our country more successful? A few Billionaires and a peasant class or a financially healthy middle class of workers. Or do you consider this liberal Socialism?

A fdx driver in my area says he tops out at about $27.50/hour pay only.

I have seen all of the markets such as OP Needs posted, it's been posted here before. $27.50 is about the lowest there is, if that's the case. On average it's more like $30 with some well over $30. But $27.50 is still pretty good driving a truck around if you are living in say, Alabama, or something.

Yes, I was a truck driver too, it's monotonous and requires little skill except a good attention span.
Knew there'd be at least one package car driver trying to puffer fish their truck driving gig responsibilities and talents upwards into something more like a teacher or doctor

Isn't being a package delivery driver almost the same thing as a doctor?Yes, I was a truck driver too, it's monotonous and requires little skill except a good attention span.
