Yes, plenty of locals have been forced 6th punches since Covid. And why should we give them any more time? Contract was ratified months ago and they had a 60 day grace period.
As for voting, I have every contract I have been here, even as a PT’er. I supported SOB and he delivered on many promises. One of which was no forced 6th punch. Can’t walk back on that the first peak it was bargained for and won.

No forced 6th punch is the main reason I voted yes on this contract

Screw the public.
Screw the shippers.
Screw the customers.
Screw UPS.
You’re going to screw thousands of Teamsters right out of a job. And you just might be one of them.

Because we don't want to work 6 days a week?
I feel like you're reaching, either with your eventual outcome or your causation for it.

Oh. I forgot.
Screw the Union. They are letting it happen.

I’m gonna guess we have been working Saturdays here for atleast the last 5 years here,just give me a helper on Monday and we will knock it out.Before then we use to just work five days and still got it done.It’s like they are scared to have us out late where I am at.

If UPS couldn’t work it out locally with the locals, it goes to the Co-Chairs to work out.
We’re not there yet

The company would rather pay dividends than hire people and buy extra package cars
That's not my problem

It’s not about screwing anyone, it’s about enforcing the contract the company agreed to. We stood up for what we earned, why are you so willing to give that up?
Probably for the same reason the people code 05

Like I said. 4 more Saturdays. It will be worked out after peak. Deliver the damn Christmas presents on time.

That doesn't seem like a burden that should fall on the shoulders of the workforce, especially after voting in good faith on a contract providing language that prohibits forced 6th punches that the company itself proposed.
I'm willing to work 6 days. They're going to pay me out the ass for it in several ways, but I'm game. If asked what I'd prefer, however? Hell no.

So, you say this like it's a consolation.
When the reality should be "no more Saturdays," "4 more Saturdays" kind of feels like the union's selling out.

Never understood that.
The newbies are the worst
And a few veterans
They're also the same people that never have any money
Nor do they put anything into the 401K
They can pay double time and they would have lots of volunteers
