IMO, the Teamsters care about any pension because they skim "fees" from it. Admin fees....interest....that sort of thing.
So that they can steer the money into "investments" that profit the Teamsters Admin.
Skimming the cream.
Their proverbial golden goose.......
To be fair......so does UPS. Up to and including canceling it all together. I believe this will ultimately happen.
Not back in the dayHow’d he start at 16??? Thought you had to be 18 to get a job here.
Good luck with thatAgain as others have said, you have no idea what you’re talking about, we just ignore you until you say something intelligent on this matter. If it’s possible for you.
You can’t be seriousCome to think of it you’ve spent 40 years chasing a Pension and you don’t even believe in because you’re incapable of invest in your own money in a way that would allow you to retire sooner, and yet you want to accuse people who are doing the job for you as being criminals and frauds. Nut up and do it yourself if you think you can.
Should have refused it gave him and his helper ( obviously scared to go out on his own) a wedgie and sent them on down the roadSo they refused it?

Do they have “another credit line” to pay strike funds in this environment?I worked at a warehouse that sold videos. VHS videos. I saw the strike from the other side of things, it wasn’t a good sight. I remember the first time an RPS (I think) truck showed up to do our pick up. They became FedEx ground. What would come from a strike this time? Just saying.
For the over 70Was that the one

The Teamsters international union has over $400million in the bank.Do they have “another credit line” to pay strike funds in this environment?
All the more reason they’re not gonna part with it. Strike is a no-go…. Company would demolish them/us.The Teamsters international union has over $400million in the bank.
70 was the maxFor the over 70
The individual in the browns no longer works for the company, disability pension. All of the management team at SOMMA either quit or were reassigned, after the strike. Also, they tried to terminate many drivers after the strike for their participation on the picket line.Was that the one day strike. Brain getting fuzzy

We were broke in 97 and they didn’t demolish us. The power is not just in the amount of money, it’s in our members. You underestimate them. As did managementAll the more reason they’re not gonna part with it. Strike is a no-go…. Company would demolish them/us.
