Why shouldn't we strike?

[Indecisi0n]

I am sticking of giving. I want to receive damnit !

 

[brownelf]

It's better to ship than receive.

 

[Dr.Brownz]

People will take one look at our compensation package and tell us to get our butts back to work.

It's not the publics choice. It's UPS's. They will loose millions possibly billions if we strike. UPS the power is in our hands.

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

With H we will never strike. Plus he gave away so much. We really have nothing to get. We will get pittance of a raise. Most pt (if they bother to vote) will take the money. We will be without a contract for atleast 6 months. Cove above is correct

He showed his true colors this past contract.

No

 

[Brownslave688]

No

Yep zero chance of a strike as long as he's in charge.

You got that right

Should give us lots of leverage in 2 years lol. Not

When you.take the fear of a strike away, you.lose.

I surely don't want to go on strike.

Exactly. The threat has to be there.

I have a union shop on my route. They didn't pass the strike vote and the only got a nickel raise.

I knew the owner for decades. Je said if those P* would have had the balls to pass a strike vote, they would have gotten a better contract

 

[sailfish]

First off. Shut up with that and 90% of my co workers are overpaid. No educated fools pulling in 80,000+ with benifits...

You can't possibly be serious.

 

[clean hairy]

Be interesting if it was to happen, seeing management and folks fresh off the street trying to run routes they know nothing about using only Orion to get them through the day......
What you think? less than a week, and Management would scream Uncle and want to settle?

My buddy that delivers beer basically goes through the same thing. Last contract they voted it down because they made them start paying for healthcare.


Boss comes in throwing a fit threatening them and boom
Next vote passes with no changes.

A strike would be the very last resort.

But when you throw your Ace away, the company isn't going to take the union seriously.

And the union winders why they can't get members in the right to work states.

 

[Griffin1820]

How does a strike actually work? I would love to see a preloader strike and force management to climb in the back of those semis spending 5 hours unloading packages. Lol
I would pay to get to watch my sups have to do that just for one week. Lol
But seriously I'm curious what is the steps to going on strike?

 

[Overpaid Union Thug]

A strike today wouldn't be supported by the public as it was 20 yrs ago , your getting paid health care, a pension , and 34 an hour to drive a truck !

You know with all of the hate for large corporations and big money you'd think it would be the opposite.

I don't think either one of those perceptions it's 100% accurate. The media, as most of us know, is predominantly controlled by one particular segment of the political spectrum and those two perceptions were what they wanted the general public to see on the news.
