[QUOTE="804brown, post: 852216, member: 29553"] Our union trustees voted to [B]save[/B] our health plan by implementing some difficult changes. Some of us have tried to explain it to you Row C (aka Row A) guys but you fail to understand . So I will type slow so you can understand. Without the changes, some of which you mention, our health plan would have been[B] $4 million in debt [/B]as of this June. Your boys knew back when they were in charge the condition of that plan and decided to punt until [B]after[/B] their (losing)election. They knew the truth but did[B] nothing[/B]. A matter of fact they [B]secretly [/B]agreed with UPS management to put in into arbitration in which case an arbitrator could have stopped all retirees from any coverage!! That would have been something huh?? Face the facts, your boys lack of leadership (Tony D, Angelo G, John M, Bill B) forced the new board's hand to make difficult decisions that [B]had to be made!![/B] A matter of fact the funds are running [B]surpluses[/B] thanks to those changes. That is leadership!! That is good union stewardship!! [/QUOTE]
