Biden on board for no strike. He'll handle it just like the the Railroad strike. He can't afford otherwise. SOB is a small fish in the government pond. The markets always know.

I advise ups teamsters to ignore any such order. Make them send in the military

Seems like there's 70 threads about this, so I guess this one will do.

Am I the only guy around here that thinks this is THE WORST time to go radio-silent by the leadership? SOB hit the news the last couple of days, but I really feel like they should be blowing this app up, 3 or 4 updates a day, even minimal news should be pumped out. We get, "UPS walks out" and then 35 :censored2:ing hours later "PT poverty doesn't work" and then 24 hours later some practice picketing bull:censored2:.

Just frustrating.

I'm done.

You’re definitely not the only one I’ve received dozens of text messages from other members, and they do not like the strategy of not saying anything to us, and talking to media. It’s just a general uneasiness as I don’t know if it’s right or wrong personally.

There's been quotes on the Teamster page on Facebook. And then this from O'Brien on MSNBC yesterday. He makes it sound like it all boils down to PT wages.

CNN yesterday, that was MSNBC this morning. Twitter and Facebook blah blah, I don't have any of that and through both platforms they pushed hard on the app, because you can confirm your status and log in. Just saying, if you can put on facebook/twitter, you can put it on the app.

I don't mean to :censored2: on you, please don't take offense, I appreciate you pointing it out. 🍻

I agree. This stuff should be posted on the app. We should not have to "surf" the web just to find status updates. Maybe there hasn't been any negotiations updates. Just Congressmen/women, joining the fight. And no real updates to post.

I don't know, I'm just a dumb truck driver.

Maybe there's nothing, but :censored2:, they fill other platforms with fluff. Don't tell me the app is the primary platform for quality info if it's not.

As far as dumb truck drivers...you and me, both, my man. You and me, both. 🍻

The new salary bands have rocked my faith in UPS to the core. I'm 25+ year man being told I'm not going to get any raises for the next X years. I know how corporate America works but I never thought in a million years UPS would sell management out for the sake of the Teamster. (They still get raises and will in the future) Next year is a contract year and I could care less if UPS goes on strike to the point that they have to sell off every asset in the company. I can't emphasize how betrayed I feel by UPS. After this last generation leaves of 45 and up, UPS will have every thing they want from management, that is, if they want medicore results. I think they will have to start tracking management turnover for the 30 and under set. Let's see, 1/2 month gone, raises gone (for many) ...I guess the MIP is next. UPS treats their management with no respect and has no loyalty to any management person regardless of years. That begs the question, why should any management person have loyalty to UPS. Treat it like any other 9-5er, and I have a lawyer on hand if they unjustly try to fire you.

Lol, a regular Sherlock Holmes. When you have no answer, I guess you just DEFLECT. Wrapping up 38 years there. Just sticking around for the fun.

Is that the answer to the Biden article? I'm sure you can dig up better quotes than that.

I agree, if it truly was going to be a “historic” contract, I think we would have heard whispers of something. Going to be the same old $1 yr bull:censored2:, maybe $1.25 yr
