[QUOTE="Inthegame, post: 1106205, member: 37112"] Yes and I believe UPS was a better place to work after the '76 strike and locally after the '55 strike because in every case the employees that make this whole thing work were getting shorted and they said no more. Record profits after each interruption prove my point. You were insulated from operations by your own admission. We weren't, we lived it every day. All the Teamsters did in '97 was show the same attitude management shows, that money means everything. Paternal attitude??? Is it easier to sleep with revisionist history? Here's a little paternal attitude story... Remember "safety parties" when a group went so many hours w/o accidents and earned an employee dinner? Mid 90's at a party and my wife tells a Labor Manager that all UPS employees should be able to buy stock. He smiles his best UPS manager condescending smirk and says "never happen" then adds "do you know why" and finally "because they don't deserve it". Yes, Paternal attitude my eye. [/QUOTE]
