Local 2727 UPDATE

[mrv]

Wow !!!! I cant believe that you really have no clue as to whats going on.

UPS767mech is a Combine stooge. He is'nt a E-board member but pretends to be one on this board. Unfortunately Combine and his boys are not equipped to do battle with UPS. All their brilliant ideas have been failures. Lets do a OT ban or put up billboards to get public sympathy. Wait I will send a letter to Scott Davis and tell him Ragar is a bad man. These are tactics of amatures! Go back to pig farming before you destroy us all. Joe always looked beyond the stupid games and always kept UPS on their toes. Beleive me UPS celebrated when these fools were elected.

The website still has 7-16 lowman. Not much help for 8-22 people. I have found that if Nancy does not answer the phone then hang up because you cannot get a straight answer. 767 might be an eboard member but probably one that caused the jump seat problem or was going to work thanksgiving week at the local causing a senior guy to get forced TDY then didnt show up at the local for duty.

"We are asking for little but UPS is asking us to do something NO OTHER TEAMSTER does, PAY for insurance. If they make us pay, they will make you pay next."

I hate to say it (mainly because it comes out of my pocket), but we Teamsters @ UPS Freight do pay for our insurance. Don't get me wrong, I fully support you and your position, I just wanted to clarify.

When was your contract ratified? Are you under the master agreement? You are the only Teamster to ever pay for basic health care. I can only think that UPS gave you a contract that maybe carried over from your former company, there are provisons for UPS to model your first agreement till you are brought under "the Master agreement". When you came on board did you get a pay increase, better work rules etc etc? The pilots are independant and pay for their insurance but a top pay captain makes 300k and pays 300 a month.

He's definitely not a e-board member, just plays one on this board. What's the matter 767? Combine put a muzzle on you?? Maybe they will update the website soon or a least answer the phone. Don't count on any of them coming to the line or any gateways to talk to the membership. They are all in hiding.

So Friendo have many mechanics are needed for 209 jets? Yes I am clueless. Did Hoffa, Capt Borne, and Roland OK the strike vote? Yes I am clueless.

Don't make those calculations 767!! If you do your number will be up! Nobody ever hit the street when Joe ran things!!

Matter of fact Dixon was layed off from DFW during the NDA cutback. His comments were taken out of context as newspaper people sometime weave. He wont work in DFW for many years. I hate to inform you of the hotline message today, but we have guys that are clueless on the RLA of 1929. Again I am asking the sups to quit acting like AMTs you guys harbor to many hard feelings like extended OOS, week long engine swaps etc etc. Today we have 209 Airplanes and we all know the formula for mechanics, insp, amc, there is a BIG buffer and I wonder if the Warden will take us to the limit. The RFD NDA shutdown will occur after peak, thats 22 minimum. What about the n401up-n420up thats 19X4. I have a feeling that Combine didnt have the IBTs blessing on this but he has played his cards and we must assist him to get retro, free health care, buck 50 per hour per year, and subcontracting rules. In closing the DEN amt has been returned to work after the arbitrator ruled excessive punishment for a minor work place violence drummed up charge. This should have never went to arbitration, a pit entry was all he needed. We must all stick together or Grade 20s will pocket our money.

Please, spare me your egotistical musings on your pivitol role in history. Nothing you do here will cause the Federation to colpapse or galaxies to explode.To be blunt, you're not that important.

ok cookdaddy-how about this:
"Just before they went into warp, I beamed the whole kit and kaboodle into their engine room, where they'll be no tribble at all."

I heard about that flight, it’s like a shot across the bow.

It is curious how often you humans manage to obtain that which you do not want.

Intresting. You Earth people glorify organized violence for fourty centries. But you imprison those who employ it privately.

I had hoped that when you had to go back to sixth grade these senseless remarks would have ceased.

ACE, how's the vote going on your end. A lot of tough talkers have been silent up here , now that it's time to put their money where their mouth is. I still think we should be at least 80% yes.
