[QUOTE="Trucker Clock, post: 5767197, member: 70932"] What don't you understand. I'm typing this very slowly so that maybe you can follow along. The local officials are not going to go against the IBT for the minority of the non-voting membership of the local. Namely, UPS employees. Remember, I am typing slowly so you can follow along. If the IBT didn't say anything, fine. But the IBT has told the locals they cannot tell UPS employees not to come in. So, the local officials have an out. They are not going to go against the IBT, and can blame the IBT for not enforcing the 6th punch. They will not get voted out because UPS employees are the non-voting minority of the locals. The leadership is doing their fiduciary duty by obeying the IBT. The locals that have made a stand are the locals that have UPS employees as a majority of their membership. If they go against the membership, they may be voted out. So they will risk the ire of the IBT to stay in office. The other locals won't. Understand? It's not that complicated. [/QUOTE]
