Wasn't that the wsws.org site that said that?

It was quoted in that article

The same people said the USPS was going to pick up the slack if UPS went on strike.

Same people that said we will have a signed contract by June iirc

"UPS negotiators withdrew their proposal on subcontracting"....is that what you were referring to?

How many people were you able to convince in your building with your poorly conceived misinformation, before we set you straight?

....and are you willing to go back and tell them the truth?

I’m thinking of going using my vacation for that week, lol. I may bring an inflatable pool to keep with tradition at my local, lol. I’m getting nervous though. It’s a bad neighborhood and too many smoothbrains. Just gotta keep trying to lift up the brotherhood some way.

It varied quite a bit over the years from what I remember. Thats one of the later ones from the logo. I seem to remember an old logo one and quite a few in just a white box. Somebody here probably has an old one forgotten in the deep freezer. They usually came from a neighboring hub in a feeder. PSA It may have been different in your area.

When did they stop giving them out? God, this company and management goes on and on about building bridges but they just keep alienating and dividing to the point of hostility and I’m sick of hearing their bull excuses. I am so glad things are changing for the better. They will definitely reap what they have sewn.

Not just a “defining moment” for our Union.. every Collective Bargaining organization in the world will be watching.

If we go out in 2023 it will make the “97” one look like a Tupperware party in comparison.

The winds have changed people are starting to see the disparities between the “haves and have nots”.

The Company has already sealed the starting rate with Market Adjustments, it will be over 20 bucks an hour. Inflation is still running over 7 percent, it will be awhile before it gets down to that 3 percent level that the federal reserve wants. GWI’s over a dollar will still be well below the inflation rates, we will lose ground.

Healthcare contributions (500 a week) will probably still be adequate to provide our current coverages.

The big fight would be our pension contributions/improvements or lack of..I do not see O’Brien pushing for equity in that area, at least on the media arena. Behind the scenes it maybe another story.

Just wanted to correct you on the inflation…..it’s well above 7% and has been for a long time. Ironically it took them changing the calculations for inflation again for it to start inching back down? Nah I don’t play that game. I believe they changed it in February.

I was thinking the same thing.. if the truth be know it is hovering around 10 %…Just gave them the benefit of the doubt. Any statistics out of Washington has to be taken with a grain of salt, especially with an election year.
