Strike Vote

[Thebrownblob]

97% of the members that voted.... authorized the strike.

If you didn't vote, sorry about your luck.

I had a few beers last night, I think I read his comment incorrectly. 97% of Teamsters definitely did not vote in the strike vote. We don’t know how many actually voted. I can guarantee you it was a lot more than five years ago.

If he did, he won’t, and shouldn’t, make that public knowledge until at least after we get a contract.

I know the number for my local, it was very close to 70% of the eligible members voted. I’m gonna guess it’s pretty similar across the country. Much better turnout than the previous contract.

And that's a hell of a turnout considering a lot of people are on vacation

That’s what I assumed… great turnout when they showed up at the gates

you can only push people so far…eventually they start pushing back, even the weakest ones.

Actually, it should be made public if the number was fairly high.

The only problem is if they did publish it now if it was a high number, what should they do next contract?

UPS could realize that if the Union did not publish the number in the future, it could mean a low turnout.

That’s predictable human nature.
You never know when you’re going to need someone, so you have to treat them accordingly. That goes for both sides.

Trust me I know I work with supervisors years ago that came back to my center at a higher position.

Try not to burn any bridges down
