[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 1605335, member: 12570"] The majority were happy with their contract and Hoffa, if he decides to run again, will win in a landslide as there will not be a viable candidate to run against him. I personally believe that he will decide not to run. He is 73 and his health is not the best. It's not like he needs the money (or the aggravation). The days of a Joe Union running the Teamsters are thankfully behind us. We need someone with the business acumen to deal with the major employers, including UPS, not someone who will stonewall any efforts at compromise. Would I have been upset that a contract that I had voted no on twice was the contract that I am now forced to abide by? Absolutely but an impartial person would be the first to tell me that the IBT did what was right for the majority of the members. [/QUOTE]
