When people come on here crying the blues because we are on strike.

[RealPerson]

Strike in this scenario are a reality. Trust me when I say this. The company isn’t going to give you what you want. I am just bracing you for the economics of what is in your future. There is more to it but your rude ass won’t be getting the particulars. If I gave these to you you could not handle it and wouldn’t believe it.

Then the Company and Union are very dumb to not pay new hires a higher wage.
You will never get the tripple time, because supervisors will work every day, because of all the new hires.
Your truck will always be loaded like crap.
Oh, these new hires, UPS doesn't pay into the pension or health fund until they work 9 or 12 months.. You think you would want them to stay!!! Union included...

Members don’t understand what is coming.

Sure they do. You spewing more bull.

 

[Tony Q]

There will be no strike. Stfu already.

The no vote is going to be the nuclear option.

Are you a dues paying member of the Teamsters in good standing?

I was told UPS informed the union of this during negotiations, UPS is trying to appease the stockholders and investors. This is why Union is pushing it so hard, if it’s voted down UPS is drastically scaling back residential customers/deliveries. Which obviously means less JOBS, Tread lightly fellas.

How childish.

Are you? Of course not. Just another Tokyo Rose for the company.

 

[wide load]

Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

I voted no because of you only.

 

[wide load]

The no vote is going to be the nuclear option.

It’s going to expose the union for being pusillanimous

“And the union helps such automation by bringing back segregation!”

I wish this strike would hurry up. The beach weather isn't getting any better.

then why ya thnk would they spend the insane amount I'm sure they spent to install brand new monstrous second floor automated small sorts in multiple east coast buildings without knowing for sure it was going to be used. mine is literally brand new, not even finished yet. if the company had a contingency plan of down scaling in case of a no vote there is no way they would have spent this whole year building these things.

 

[brown_trousers]

Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

This is the generation of millenials. I doubt they will be crying about it. They will just cross the picket line to continue working

A strike will break the union. The union knows this. Livelihoods,
Pensions, healthcare all broke. There will be books written about how the entitled ups teamsters broke the teamsters. And as a result, all Labor unions faded away.

Well they wasted billions on Orion didn’t they?

I agree, they just started building an automated small sort in my building. Doesn’t look like a pullback to me.....
