Well, at least they are going to start talking again.

As thousands of UPS Teamsters practice picket, rally, and mobilize around the country, UPS bowed today to the overwhelming show of Teamster unity and reached out to the union to resume negotiations. The Teamsters National Negotiating Committee and the company will set dates soon to resume negotiations next week.

I hope so. I don't want to do your job!

Come on man, just a one day strike

I want to see if my center manager can last more than 2 hours

If I am your center manager, I would bribe Amazon Flex people for 2 hours (throw in the free beers and a turkey. I won't pay for the free hookers. That is too expensive, and I can't file expense report for that).

How about UPS agreed to resume negotiations due to the overwhelming show of Teamster unity. His ego never stops.

Then I would have 50 driver follow-ups the following day

Couldn’t agree more. It needs to be dialed back.

This is how it's going down.

You would think there's been some phone calls, discussions, and this means there ready to finalize.

Hopefully. Also possible ups has seen the public support along with political support for the workers and figured it’s not a winning battle.

I don’t see why they have to wait until next week to start though

It’s one of two things. They are feeling the pressure and want this settled or it’s all for show and they are going to present the same offer they left off with and then everyone will know the strike is on. I can’t see them just rolling over and giving him exactly what he’s asking for.

As far as back channel phone calls yeah, I really find it hard to believe there has been zero communication since July 5th. They’ve been talking, just not in a formal setting.

Agreed. To me both sides are willing to strike. Last thing we need is this to go to the last minute. If they stop talking after it restarts then its safe to say a strike will happen. Fingers cross this gets settled.

I can believe they haven’t been talking. I bet SOB made his minimum offer very clear to them and said if we don’t get this we’re striking. Ups said they had nothing left to give, and then they left and have been playing chicken since

UPS is already paying starting pay $26 part time in some hubs, maybe they were trying to gauge public support during the chicken match, saw the public was on the workers side, and realize it’s better to pay that wage to all workers and get it done with. I really hope so at least

 

[KearsargeCoop]

Or ups shows up and says LBFO and SOB says eff you and it's on

 

[Karma...]

biden cant allow a strike and create more political turmoil.........it would be un-American

Key word “some” ups pays that in “some” hubs , they can also pay one shift “some” more than another , they can also pay “some” new ass hat the same amount as a guy with 10 years . Idk specifics of what Sean is asking but I know it’s contractual language , and also some sort of raise for the workers with some seniority.
