[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 3749213, member: 63706"] This is an argument for why UPS shouldn't make such a bad offer that the union is forced to strike. UPS is in the process of a $20 billion infrastucture upgrade planned out over the next 5 years. They are trying to make the employees pay for a portion of it by shorting part timers and creating 22.4. We are not going to cause UPS to go broke because we demand a better offer. They may have to stretch out their upgrades a little further, or cut back on dividends some, but I don't think we're so far away from each other that a strike will be necessary. Now, as far as why the union leadership is trying to use the possibility of a strike to scare us into voting yes, that's anyone's guess. I have two possibilities in mind, though... [/QUOTE]
