Agreed, I'm very close with two members of the national bargaining committee and the only information I get is "No Concessions" and SOB is the voice of the Teamsters. They will let me know their travel plans also, but other than that it's crickets.
Everyone seems to know someone on the negotiating committee… just like every customer I had seemed to know an ups “big shot” or “higher up”…if I had a buck for every time I heard that lol
Every local has a representative, so if you're engaged with your local, you have a "friend" on the committee. In my case, I have been a steward for 20+ years and both of our reps have been business agents of mine for the majority of my time. We have conversations weekly. Funny thing is both these guys were package car drivers with no formal education in operating a non profit or negotiating a contract. It's a learn as you go position.
i dunno man
ing hate the "we only exist to increase shareholder value!" philosophy
You don't bring a knife to a gun fight.
Being that the process for contract ratification is going to be by mail again I certainly hope people do vote. It’s incredibly frustrating how few people vote when things are sent to their home.
STOP
Voting by mail is so 1999. Reminds me of mail-in-rebates I used to send off on a 50 spindle of blank DVD-R's that too 8 weeks to process.
Being a UPS manager doesn’t carry the same clout it used to. Hard times for everyone
I believe the vote will electronic like it was last time?
If Trump isn’t praising Putin’s “genius” invasion of Ukraine then he’s whacking off to Xi’s “brilliance” in China. The point is that Trump loves autocrats and autocracy and wishes he could be in their place here in America. He SUCKS.How
I never heard for sure but I kind of figured you could do it by phone or computer as well. Of course, that didn’t seem to matter last time either hopefully this time will be different. Seems when things get sent to peoples homes they just put them to the side and never bother.

He did say that but I’m not certain if that means they’re mailing the information and then we can call in and do it electronically, by phone, or computer, or if we physically have to mark a piece of paper and return it by mail.
Yeah (I believe), they mail your accreditation to your residence with a unique pin number, then you vote electronically by phone or internet.
It depends on how many degrees from Kevin Bacon.
He’s been in the public eye lately since they left the table. I have yet to see someone repping UPS speak up besides stupid automated PR responses.
