[QUOTE="Local 804 Insider, post: 1686951, member: 58873"] Actually, the BA, Liam, was doing his job. Liam was 110% sure the 250 Walkout was legal. If you have ever dealt with Liam, you know he always makes sure all basis are covered. Liam put his own job on the line for the Members and paid for it too. Liam didn't cost the local thousands -- the payment to UPS was Tim's suggestion. The 250 Walkout was legal. The settlement didn't have to cost Members so much and Members' jobs were never on the line. Bottom line, if Tim didn't care about being International President, Members wouldn't have had to pay so much. What ever happened to power in numbers? Teamster brotherhood? Sticking together? Did everyone forget what started all of this? UPS sticking it to Jairo? An injured Member gets fired for something he didn't do? Then gets walked out against the contract? His innocence is proven at the hearing and he still gets fired? Of course, lucky for UPS, Jairo is a union activist. Look at Jairo's face in the beginning of the video. That's how all Members should fee -- like there is a true and strong union membership standing up for what is right. [/QUOTE]
