[QUOTE="balland chain, post: 1113384, member: 43608"] I agree. Please stop and consider prior to crossing a picket line that the reason there is a picket line, is that WE are fighting for all UPSers as a whole. Having our hourly coworkers cross a picket line sends a message not only to your coworkers, but it sends a message to the company that you are in agreement with the offer they have given us (if there is one) or the current contract that we are working under. Think about it like this, I dont know your job classification, but, if lets say the contract is great (?) but gives better benefits to the full timers as opposed to the part timers, or vice versa, if we are on strike it is because WE are fighting for a fair contract for all. Crossing that line basically says I dont care. Save some money each week and if it comes down to a strike, use your savings to cover your bills, at least a mortgage (rent) payment, and car payment if you have one. If you do have some credit card bills, call them, explain the situation, and they should work with you. If we do strike, it should not be for long as the company looses a ton each day, plus the customers confidence in the future.. [/QUOTE]
