Should The Next Contract Address "Scabs?"

[rod]

The funniest post in this whole thread was Photog's when he posted that "he actually supported Unions"-----that one had me in tears.

My point exactly ... some part-timers may take many years to make their mind up as whether to make UPS a career or not. Some P/T may have another career job/profession and UPS is just extra money ... albeit not much compared to Full-Time Drivers.

And during all those years reap the benefits of the union. That's a freeloading scab for ya.

You are the one who came up with the definition of "when/how long".
Of course, I was in management for 38 years of my 40 at UPS and I reaped the benefits of the union too.

Reap the benefits of the Union? A minimum wage job with no benefits. Most PTers learn pretty quick that they need the protection of the Union. Just a few FT drivers that refuse to join.

When the Union, controlled by scabbing Full-timers keep their part-timer brothers and sisters battered down?
The Teamster's via pressure from Full-timers have kept the part-timer second class citizens, nay little more than slaves.

I would consider a career part-timer after 20 years of employment.
At how many years do you consider a part-timer to be a career part-timer?
When they make as much as a full-timer? I'll go with that.

UPS could always insist on paying PT ers a higher wage. But they don't do they? No, they want to give more money for scabbing mgmt. Wow, they must really dislike the largest employee group in the hourly ranks to dis them so.

Happy to boost your self image. Hey, how bout those pt supes, they must make the same per hour as the ft on car, center manager, Division manager etc right? I mean otherwise they'd be scabbing them on their wages right?

Sometimes, I don't know if you are serious....

Or, it's completely tongue-in-cheek.
