Let me ask you all a question. Why didn't the Union get together with management before UPS went public and make it an employees owned private company? Selling stocks on Wall Street makes a lot of people rich.
FedEx urges customers to shift volumes from UPS to avoid strike risks
The carrier is telling shippers to act before March 31 if they want to avoid potential disruption this summer.

Obvious answer: Greed…
It did make some senior managers millionaires… Union Grunts were just an obstacle to prevent them from getting more UPS stock…Sharing was never an option…

Retired 22 years
It made more than some senior management millionaires----it also made a lot of Center Managers millionaires. Their yearly bonus was always Company Stock. Our center manager at the time retired to the good life.

I know this is reading between the lines but, when she said that the company and union weren’t far apart, things needed to be tweaked a little, I assumed that tweaking included keeping 22.4’s and PVDs. Are they taking a hard stance on that?

I’m gonna bet they’re more willing to move on the 22.4 then the PVD.
If we have PVD language then they better have strong language same with every driver is guaranteed 8 hours regardless of our worked

I hate the idea of PVDs, but it may be impossible to totally get rid of definitely would need strong language protecting our work.
Anytime a seasonal is working any regular employee show not be paid less than their daily guarantee.

If you were a company that ships packages and said companies employees/ administration who were able to buy stock and had stock in UPS, would you ship FedX or UPS?

If any volume is lost, it's not long until you get it back. Fedx is a joke.

I did not shrug off the opportunity.
I was right at 20 years when I began to beg, borrow, and steal from family and friends and bought all I could with all I had.
It did make me rich. 10 years later, I retired even wealthier.
Never did 401K. Nothing but UPS stock. As I look back, the forest was all virgin timber. I was lucky to be where I was, when I was, and do what I did.
