Can someone explain the candidates for me?

That was a lot more useful than I thought it would be.

Why did you come to UPS to work

 

[Billy Ray]

I just started at UPS a few months ago. I started reading the who are you voting for post but got lost since i don't have a clue what you're all talking about there.

One is a clown... and the other, a she-devil.

Oh wait,...... never mind

 

[silenze]

Vote

I received a call from a pollster the other day. Before she could start her pitch I told her I thought Trump was an a hole and Hillary a bitch.

She hasn't called back since.

How about never in a million years. From UPS part time to IBT International? Some of you have completely lost your gosh darn minds!

I know that much, but I'm trying to figure out who to vote for and I'm coming up blank. I am trying to find out what each person would do for us. I am trying to make an informed decision, but I don't have the information to do so.

The Teamsters United State is full of people who couldn't win their own local elections. A guy out of local 804 was their first choice. He lost his election because his members didn't like him.


The next choice is a guy you will hear a little bit more about. He is referred road flip flop Freddy because he used to like Hoffa. He became the general president candidate by default. The so-called second choice.

He has persecuted his own members in the past and been found to have done so by the NLRB. These members were Tdu members and he hated Tdu.

Well he is now Tdu hence the nickname flip-flop Freddy. He is the leader of a slate that is Tdu comprised of these unqualified people who can't win their own locals and many other teamsters who are considered misfits because they aren't revered by their own peers.
At the last convention they received such little support that members out west or Canada didn't even nominate anyone from their slate.

This is a picture of the Convention with a who's who of who supported them.

Bogus post

So the current failed to raise starting wage, is his opponent planning to change that? That's the kind of info I'm looking for. I'm watching the debate and it isn't helping me either.

Their opponent hasn't set forth any plan.......all he says is he's an angry teamster

 

[Heavily Caffeinated]

Why did you chose to work at UPS

I have another job that is entirely a dead end. I don't know if I'll stay here as a career or go back to school but either way this job is beneficial for me.

 

[Heavily Caffeinated]

Another uninformed voter

So inform us.

 

[Brown_Star]

So inform us.

Have you been to your Union meetings?

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Have you been to your Union meetings?

You would learn zero about either slate at your monthly meeting.

Why is it beneficial?

 

[Heavily Caffeinated]

Why is it beneficial?

Steady hours, better working conditions than my other job, room for advancement, benefits, tuition reimbursement when I go back to school next year. I made book last month and I've worked here before, so I know enough about the job to know that for now at least I plan to stay put because the job is worth it for me.

 

[Heavily Caffeinated]

Have you been to your Union meetings?

No. I didn't know when they were. By the time I found out it was too late to attend. I just made book last month.

 

[Heavily Caffeinated]

I saw that. That's basically all I could find besides talk about how he doesn't like the other guy.

Their opponent hasn't set forth any plan.......all he says is he's an angry teamster

Full time driver? How long have you been employed by ups?

[Heavily Caffeinated]

Yeah. It's not that bad. I hate my other job. Absolutely hate it.
