[QUOTE="Trucker Clock, post: 5565232, member: 70932"] It's called Roadie and it is not to replace us, or even supplement us. It is to compete in the same day delivery market that everyone is getting into. I always love the clueless who say that they heard this from so and so. And then go on to repeat it as fact. Yes, UPS would love to bust up the Union. But, it ain't happening, at least not anytime soon. Carol already said she wants a win-win for both the Teamsters and UPS. That's what everybody wants. If she was to force a strike, the lawsuits from the shareholders would never stop. Carol would be fired as CEO by the Board, and she would go down in history as the CEO that tried to burn UPS to the ground. Some legacy, huh? The Board would replace her and try and salvage what would be left of the Company. Why would you try and burn down a $5 Billion per year profit Company just to increase your profits by a little? I don't buy it. It would be different if the Teamsters were asking for the world. They are not. Their demands are reasonable, and something that UPS can afford and still net $5 Billion per year in profit. [/QUOTE]
