Will there be a national strike at UPS?

Not here they are the highest seniority in the company. It’s going to be the young guns who cross and take the Apple the company dangle’s in their face.

Highest seniority with 2 alimony payments and medical problems.

Young guns here are used to being broke.

Let's see how the railroad contract plays out

Seem to have our answer.

Man I would love the railroad to wildcat and tell Biden to shove it.

Could someone that was working in '97 please explain this?
I'm, apparently, not being clear enough.
Thanks.

The first day of the strike the only packages left to deliver were those that were already in the system which wasn't much. After a couple days the system was "empty". Management was not making pick ups and any feeder you saw on the road was driven by management and was EMPTY. They tried their best to make it appear it was business as usual. We had an inside non-union clerk who kept us informed about what was going on inside the building---which was NOTHING.

Will portapottys be provided for the strike? Or will we just all piss on the sidewalk?

No strike. Biden just betrayed all of us. WTH We get what we deserve and we deserve what we get!

I found this a thought-provoking article and would suggest y'all pay close attention to the IBT's involvement in the railroad dispute. There are 57k Teamsters involved, e.g., nearly half of all the rail workers affected.

It's time to do what we can to bolster rank and file organization and strength. We need to be prepared to hold O'Brien and Zuckerman accountable to their promises.

I think so, PVD is a existential threat to our sovereign ( UPS) employment and is strike worthy. Also believe there will be mass layoffs after peak season; our volume is down. WAY DOWN

Won’t happen. Biden literally just showed us yesterday that it won’t happen. Are you awake yet? Smh

Pvds already went thru arbitration and yes it was ruled against the contract. What did teamsters do? Pvds everywhere this Xmas. Teamsters better wake up!

Are the pilots going to back you guys again? Does anyone know?

If they are Teamsters they better. That being said the pilots have always backed the peons.

They will honor our picket line. Should we have one.

Just because they ratified their contract doesn't mean they won't honor a UPS strike. Unions tend to honor others strikes. I know there was at least a dozen other non-related strikes at businesses I delivered to that I refused to cross their picket lines.

I agree I was just pointing out that they are not Teamsters

Yes, I don't trust UPS to bargain in good faith whatsoever. Are you talking with your coworkers about it? Our efforts started small at my building, but we're ramping them up and hope to reach out across our Local as soon as possible.

 

[Non liberal]

And what is he going to do, sick the national guard on us if we strike anyway?

No, if Biden says to, O’Brien will cave and accept what ups wants to give us. Libs stick together unfortunately. That’s why it’s time for teamsters to switch parties.

 

[Non liberal]

No strike. Biden just betrayed all of us. WTH We get what we deserve and we deserve what we get!

Although he didn’t betray me. I know what kind of pieces of call themselves democrats!!
