[QUOTE="Been In Brown Too Long, post: 3716849, member: 32249"] I agree, they'll laugh at that language. I just don't want to say anything that deviates from the proposed language giving these shills an opening to attack. The language is dire enough as written to make my point, forget about how dire things will be when UPS exploits it. I'm tired of hearing the "have you ever negotiated a labor agreement? Are you an expert in contract law?" NO I HAVEN'T! But I have had to work under the contracts that you guys have negotiated for decades. I've seen language that appeared solid get misinterpreted, or twisted. So when I see obviously weak, exploitable language presented, I have to ask, HAVE YOU EVER NEGOTIATED A CONTRACT WITH UPS OR HAD TO WORK UNDER THAT CONTRACT? If you had, you'd know without question how this language will be used against us. And what difference does it make if Tyler has been "vote no" since the last contract? If he believes it was garbage, and now this one too, that's his right. What grand conspiracy would a young driver be a part of, and what would he have to gain other than his right to a fair contract? The union on the other hand.... [/QUOTE]
