[QUOTE="Leftinbuilding, post: 250245, member: 5023"] Something to consider-- Fed Ex is contacting our shippers and telling them their volume will not be accepted ( by Fed Ex) after early next year in case of a UPS strike. So our shippers are already nervous and it won't take much to cause them to divert pkgs. We don't operate in a vacuum. Our actions affect others therefore we had better be concerned about the overall health of OUR business or wages will be a moot point. I think an early contract settlement, coupled with Fed Ex financial woes could put UPS in a great position for the future. We are definitely at a crossroad. We all have issues we would like addressed, but Teamsters can't negotiate 230,000 individual contracts. Our (and our families) future is in our hands. [/QUOTE]
