So because he hasn’t held an elected Union position, you think he isn’t smart enough to see a crap contract when he see’s it?I hate being a grammar nazi. I just can't read that gibberish.
It's a desecration of the english language.
I haven't endorsed or declined the new proposed language.
All I have done, is point out the miss-truths and the comical conspiracy's.
This Tyler guy....
Is a 4 year driver, with no experience in holding any elected Union position.
That makes his "observations" opinion, not fact.
The actual vote total, will tell the tale.
-Bug-
I’m okay with them paying more as long as they are in management. I understand what you are saying though.I'm ok with smokers paying more because that's a personal choice they make.
Teamsters costs go up so they have to cut it from somewhere else.While bringing in record profits. It's called greed. Management has no choice but to take it up the tailpipe. Have you ever heard a low level mgmt person snap on a conference call while being raked over the coals? One quick phone call and they become silent as a mouse.
Please, watch Tyler Binder you tube videos, about the real truth of this absurd. Only type his name on the search button, and you got all his videos, about this ....
UPS Contract 2018, VOTE NO!!!!!!! Its a Must.
I don't knock people for trying, but his commentary is an opinion.... not fact.

Everything I mentioned was a personal decision.I'm ok with smokers paying more because that's a personal choice they make.
While I applaud a 4 year driver getting involved in the contract negotiations and standing up for what he believes in,his efforts would be much more appreciated fighting ups on the shop floor with the contract we have like most stewards do everyday at ups.....right now in my eyes he's just another complaining internet blowhard and his 5 min of internet fame will pass
Cool story.
I'm aware of that recent report on alcohol but there have also been studies that show the health effects of moderate drinking are negligible. I would like to see more. Weight is much more complicated because eating is not a choice, and poor eating habits often have much more to do with your upbringing/income level tha any personal choice you made as an adult. In addition there are a lot of underlying medical/physical conditions that can predispose a person to obesity. Having said that obesity in the US is big driver of rising healthcare costs and something that really needs to be addressed, just not sure that increasing premiums is an effective way to deal with it.Everything I mentioned was a personal decision.
What if anyone that drinks at all pays more?
Experts warn that any alcohol consumption is bad for you
I'm just pointing out that it's a slippery slope I'd rather not start down.I'm aware of that recent report on alcohol but there have also been studies that show the health effects of moderate drinking are negligible.

The research on smoking is pretty clearcut, nobody is under any illusions about it, and the company will pay for a program to help you quit.
TDU.... doesn't have any hot girls.
Aside from the fact, the guy has been a pkg car driver for a whole 4 years....
The Memorandum of Understanding relates to the company or the members attempting
to withdraw from current multi-employer pension funds and joining the UPS/IBT fund.
It's been contract language since December 2007.
Long before, he even had a job.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!EXPAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have respected many of the things you've typed in these forums, even if I didn't agree. Very knowledgeable to say the least.
But I finally had to say something about one of your "pro-IBT" remarks...
You are clearly uninformed & mistaken if you think everyone that is against the currently proposed contract is a TDU person.
Although I am a Vote NO person, I was asked to volunteer for TDU and vehemently said NO.
Tell yourself & your IBT brethren to get over yourselves and stop trying to blame everything on political "us vs. them" issues.
Fix the problems. Then complain about the other side.

Please explain what he is wrong about and why this change should not concern us.
Poor BUG is welting under this piss-poor Hoffa contract. Kinda hard to not look bad defending it isn’t it?If it walks like a duck....
How many years you spend on a package car?
