[QUOTE="705red, post: 874441, member: 5229"] We were a family up to 97, hourly and management. Until UPS gave us the Best, last and final offer, then they mailed us propaganda and took us for granted. Ron Carey and hall out smarted UPS in this. The public support, haveing a Democrat as President, using the Part time America issue made the workers look like heroes and UPS as villians. UPS is treating the employees worse now, employees at least FT and seniority PTers are making more money now and if we are decent at saving money we would be able to afford a lengthy stirke, if one happened. I was part of 3 strikes, 1 in 94/95ish for raising the Over 70lb weight to 150lbs, 97 and again in 98 for sups working. I would rather not have to strike again, but there are not to many other choices if the treatment of the workers, the subcontracting, diversion of our work, production harassment and 22.3 issues do not get resolved. IMO If it does happen, UPS wont get caught twice wiith their pants down, but at the same time the employees would probably support it more. This years election for IBT office will be a telling point of how happy or unhappy Teamsters members are. IMO [/QUOTE]
