[QUOTE="mamirk69, post: 883376, member: 34893"] Now you are making some points I will agree with you on. My local have roughly 5,000 upsers and there were roughly 1500 yes to 250 no. That was a sad event to me and rather disappointing. I will give you respect for your actions on enlightening the masses but let us be for real on the issue of the contract. Only the priveleged knew what was going on with that contract. Hell it took almost four months to receive union books after the contract was ratified. As to the local paying to send the business agents out to Vegas with accomodations of course but to say that Hoffa did not have entertainment and everything else in between just like the delegate convention lets not kid ourselves and the union business involved promoting a weak contract to the UPsers. This is why I am hoping for a much better turn around when it comes to voting this time around because regardless of who an individual is supporting union participation is a must in order to have a strong union. To your reference as to Hoffa and the committee, that is a half ass chair in my opinion. Do you think wall street operate in the manner? No, How about corporate America? No. Hoffa should know the important matters that affect every single member in a contract and that would relate to the master agreement not so much the riders and supplements. I guess that is why Hoffa refuses to debate on the issues because hell he does not know the issues and now you are making sense for why Hoffa does not show up for debates. Good luck to my Teamster members out there in California and abroad because we are going to need it if we follow the same status quo. [/QUOTE]
