PT vacation cover drivers are OK, just as long as they make the same pay as top package car or Feeder drivers. Otherwise it is just an excuse for UPS to use cheaper labor.
Yes your right! But Liam got us PT vacation cover driver who will make $11 an hour less than a driver! Yes he is brilliant! Of course I an being sarcastic!!!

It is what it is
It may have been a bad decision on the BA's part, but it is nothing short of righteous to see fellow teamsters stick together in this manner.
Hasn't there always been consequences and repercussions for standing for something?

Ashamed that I work for SOME of the UPS regime.
Embarrassed that I am associated with SOME of the union goones.

Why can't the union fight this firing by EASILY proving that many locals in the UPS system have 1,000's of drivers spending hours everyday setting up their truck. Come to my building and watch as management sends loaders home because drivers are loading their trucks off the clock??

Would you be willing to potentially put your livelihood on the line to support a co-worker?
The article doesn't specify but I have to think that there were some drivers who chose not to participate in the walkout. Can you imagine the divisive atmosphere that this may create?

VCDs in L804 also increase the number of vacation weeks available in the summer. L804 voting members accepted this agreement in big numbers.

Isn't that part of the idea of a union?

I am still sitting on my hands waiting to hear about how this is all turning out for those guys in Queens. Also surprised no one has asked the King of Queens about his opinion of the situation. It is my opinion that even if it goes over badly, it will still give other locals some courage to make similar statements to the company. And I'm itching for the opportunity to join a walkout effort.

As a fellow 804 member, I love the solidarity being shown. But I am very worried what we will be giving back to protect these jobs. Also does anyone really think UPS is not going to look to be paid for the thousands of NDA packages that were late. I see that putting my local under.
