Negotiations

Yes, well I want the signing bonus for retro pay for the last three years of inflation on top of historic raises for the historic profit they’ve made because of covid, not instead of.

Nevermind

Signing bonuses are for suckers.

They used signing bonuses to sell bad contracts like the one with split rates for PT'ers. Part timers then didn't care about the future.

So does anyone know how much of a strike fund the teamsters have? How long could we hold out for?

 

[Just A UPS Guy]

I will take money that I have earned for this greedy corporation in any way, shape or form.

How much do you think we deserve for raises? How much up front, how much total?

267million or 300milliomg something like that. 2 weeks and it’s depleted

Carol Tome wants a strike 100%. It will benefit her stock portfolio long term, add to her “legacy“ and become a couple chapters in a book she will coauthor once she is expired.

She had a duty to not let the stock fall.. we go on strike she is toast. She 100% does not want a strike.

And they'll lose more in a day than they did in all 15 days of '97.

It’s all relative

Depends on who's losing the $200M a day.

This isn’t 97

 

[DELACROIX]

True .. it would be a lot worse ..

Just for giggles what if they did let us strike until the union ran out of money. What would happen?

Nothing, we keep striking, we didn’t have money last time.

I really didn’t hear that question ask in 1997 even though everyone knew the union was broke. Now they got a pretty decent strike fund that could hold us out for a while. I hope people saved. And if they didn’t, I hope this teaches them to save for next time.
