First of all you and your board are so full of $h*t!!! Stop your lies because nothing is going to make you win again. TDU got you in, but that TDU scum is now making you loose. This is the 1st time in Local 804 history, (being the one of the biggest UPS Local's in the International) was not invited to the national negotations. What a embarressment to our Union. Our International does not want anything to do with you.........
YOU ALL HUNG YOURSELVES!!!!!!
Wrong, it was not TDU that got anybody in. It was over 2400 members who did that by voting out of power an old guard E/B who lost touch with the membership and lied to us about our pension and health funds. All TDU did was provide the membership with facts and numbers that our board never shared with us. TDU is in it for the good of the rank and file while old guard union officials were all for themselves and their high salaries and special perks. TDU didn lie and make up their bloated salaries. It only reported those salaries.
You guys are so obsessed with TDU. As though you all need a convenient scapegoat to blame. Well, look in the mirror and blame yourselves. You guys were in power for a very long time. And in that time Row A (aka Row C) took control of a powerful and respected union that Ron Carey left them and in those 10 years took us backwards.
Im glad TDU is helping our current board. When you have Hoffa in control of the Intl, you are not going to get any truth or information. TDU has been around for a long time. They have many connections in powerful places. Without them our local probably would have bought Howie and Tony's last contract. Instead they provided Tim and co with lots of information with allowed us to vote down that first contract and demand something better.
We are all better off thanks to TDU and we are better off without Donato in power!! Remember TDU stands for Tony Doesnt Understand!!
