Nothing has started yet… your union should be having a contract kickoff to start discussions on what members would like to see brought up when things do start. You need to go to the union meetings to voice your wants and concerns…and bring some coworkers with you. You all can go to lunch afterwards and discuss your thoughts.

Last I heard is that O'Brien's team will be starting up after this peak...
Everybody knows what the issues are, just dig out all those previous contract proposals that were thrown in the trash over the last 25 years.

He is going to meet with the company or just start sending out questionnaires that only 20% of the members fill out and send back.

Generally the same 20 % that vote on the General Elections, the Strike Authorizations and the National Contracts.
The Other 80 % are to be considered non factors or non essential...

They send a self addressed envelope…takes 30 seconds to fill out your vote..can’t get much easier than that.Generally the same 20 % that vote on the General Elections, the Strike Authorizations and the National Contracts.

Good post! I will look to see if my local has any meetings. Do I just go on the local homepage? I think that there needs to be better communication so we know if other people at our location are having the same issues. For instance, are other people having the same pay issues? Unioun Power Radio had a good quote - if one person files a complaint then we are a mosquito, however, if multiple people file the same complaint then we are a beehive.
Also, it is not too early to talk about contract negotiations. The media talked about the potential 2020 presidents in 2017 and they yap about the midterms all day. These negotiations impact us much more than the midterms. Hopefully there will be alot of transparency about the contract.

Do you mean 22.3 FT Hub and Preload? They are the only ones that show up on time day in and day out. The whole system would collapse without them.
no.....ft hub anf ft pl......those on the actual seniority list..........22.3 are not considered actual ft......I think there are perhaps around 15 such operations left....the rest have been phased/bought out.........and point well taken as to their reliability...I do not insult......old school never insults old school.....I was curious......

Their own damn fault. Live within your means idiots. You don't need a new house and 2 new cars the day you get married.
A lot of the management also lives paycheck to paycheck and many of them are in deep debt. I think a surprising amount of Part-Timers would be able to outlast them and could manage without a UPS paycheck for a few weeks. Anyways, I'm looking forward to the contract campaign kickoff and hopefully they take purposeful actions.
