You're being ageist, but why don't they have an app for that? It's the modern world now.

I was referring more to my copy of the contract. That's what I'm more interested in. I want to know what I'm voting on.
Vote No
You're welcome

Even if we vote no, they will find a way to push it through. Besides, how much headway do you think we're really going to make if we go back to the bargaining table?
And I may be pessimistic, but if it's a bad contract, I will still vote no.

Well now I finally feel like I'm part of UPS. Brotherhood.

it says, in red letters:
IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE YOUR PACKET BY DECEMBER 19, 2018, CALL THE HALL IMMEDIATELY TO BE RE-CREDENTIALED AND HAVE A NEW PACKET SENT TO YOU.
710 UPS Package Members: Get Ready to VOTE!
Right on their website.
And yes, the votes won't be counted till next month. The ballots went out Friday.
And no, the teamsters aren't a shipping company...they just happen to be associated with one. I'll bet they could even work out a reduced rate!
They use USPS for mailings

Way to support 710 Teamster jobs... by using UPS competition.

We do parcels. They do envelopes. I don't have a problem with it. Lol

I’m not even remotely surprised.
The handshake agreement was made with word from the union that no results would happen until after peak
Taylor coming in and all
Of that good stuff was to calm
The waters til
After peak. The union and ups weren’t about to let 710/705 screw up peak

Okay.
So quick update on the absent ballots.
Local steward called into the union hall, and apparently there is some sort of glitch. (710).
They are apparently going to send them out next week, and said we should have till about January 19th to actually vote on the stuff.
Can't actually confirm that the union guy said that, but assuming my steward is being honest.

clearly benefits UPS and takes away any pressure on the company brought by a potential no vote...also lets UPS hang onto money that would be paid out in this year and lets them pay it out next year...etc.

I'm sure he is...
It would be nice if a) they could update their website b) Update all the Stewards c) be more honest and transparent d)return calls for advice in a timely manner
It's a start.
Your contract will suck if dont at least vote to authorize a strike.
