Wait, wait, wait. The company did nothing wrong! Oh i get it only in accepting a contract that, even though it will disenfranchise the workforce benefits the shareholders. Sure the company did nothing wrong in that i agree! They got a Christmas gift that will keep on giving for decades to come.
Did they bargain in good faith, all the information we have, go back to news from January & February of this year, I dont see it. Were they better at negotiations, more nuanced in mental manipulation, techniques of how to stear a conversation so that your opponent believes that they come up with what you actually wanted the outcome to be. So much so that your opponent becomes a champion for your cause! Yes!
Thats why we put it to a vote.
Its telling how much this contract will negatively impact, our and future UPSers lives that despite the Union and Company "appearing to be in collusion" working so hard together for a clear victory, it still Had To Be Ratified Not Passed by a vote.
