I Voted No

Ya because our competition can surely handle the added volume?? Or maybe UPS can wave a magic wand and hire 300 thousand people overnight...Get real!
You're dumb af. I'm voting no, but I also understand that a strike longer than a week will cost tens of thousands of jobs for a very long period of time. There will be no log jam as there will be <50% volume the day we walk out.

DHL, FedEx, Lasership, Amazon, USPS could collectively handle quite a bit of volume, and can pay big bucks to field people fast. This whole vote no campaign is lead by socialists and communists with outrageous demands and moving goalposts.

Are you a member of this rank and file committee?

It's been estimated that all of them combined could only possibly handle 30 percent of our volume... probably way less

So many lies in that.

Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.

It does have a distinct communist smell to it.

And if this does get voted down, which I don’t think it will, but if it does, we lose all support from the public and the politicians that supported SOB during these negotiations. Hell we even lose SOBs support.
Yup, this agreement has garnered more headlines than any other worker pay out there. Unfortunately, just about everyone knows what we are getting for raises and how much we will make. The rhetoric in response from the public has been surprise and shock at how much we make. Just imagine if this thing gets voted down how crazy and out of touch we're going to look when much of the country is struggling to get by. People are happy for us now but they sure as hell won't be if we vote no.

-Frozen pensions in Philadelphia and the West. (Not true)
-The raise outpaces inflation, and what does that matter anyway if you need more money work and extra job.
-The statement about MRAs, if you already had one you keep it and get raises on top of it.
-7500 jobs created is more than enough most PTmers don’t have the balls to go full time.
- Complaining about AC like we could get it all at once, that language is for the future, not current drivers.

Cmon man, go to your hall and talk to someone, this article is crap.

Will the shippers quit shipping? NO

Will our competition be able to handle more than a fraction of the added volume? HELL NO

Will UPS be able to hire enough scabs in a matter of weeks to function anywhere close to what we're moving now?? NO CHANCE IN HELL

All this together equals an enormous back log and economic disaster this country has never seen.

Our semis will be packed to the brim on the first day back picking up the volume from shippers that our competition couldn't handle...that customers have been waiting on ( for weeks)
It will take months to get caught up
