We’re management fat that’s for sure, cut there as well.
UPS tells customers they begin training management today on how to keep packages moving during a strike

- Start date
I don't get it
The profits they made alone during the 2-3 years of Covid nonsense are more than enough to take care of this 5 year contract ask of ours, they aren't gonna go broke.
And even with the Covid push in the rear view mirror they will still go back to making billions a year regardless.
THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS.........WOWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lord have mercy boys, lets all grab a pen and sign this fast before they change their minds!!!!

I am definitely a tin foil hat wearing conspiracy theorist...but it just seems too obvious that this is all for show. At many members expense.
It's also the company because the volume has been going down.

Yea I’m not buying the conspiracies. UPS is holding off as long as possible and causing unrest and uncertainty with customers and losing volume to fed ex so they can make the Union look stronger to encourage Amazon to unionize?
I don’t know enough about this stuff, but I imagine corporate and shareholders only care about their profits and maximizing it as much as possible, they don’t care about “leveling the playing field” by unionizing Amazon. I hope I’m wrong though
When you lose volume you lose profits

Right. They’re losing volume now, but they’ll lose even more if a strike happens
The only thing I can think of is they know we have a 2 week strike fund and they will wait for us to run out of that and be forced to come back, and they figure the savings from not giving the raises will offset the cost of the strike. Does that make sense or no? Otherwise I just don’t know what the plan is
I’m really starting to get nervous about all this crap
The business they will lose will be far more expensive than give us a little bit more money

Can anyone honestly think our current pt and ft management could even do our jobs past a few hours. Last contract ft management had to be drivers before they went into management. Now management walk around eating and looking at their phones.
Aug the hottest part of the year, even with scabs no way can they do our jobs.
There will be a lot of management with heat stroke. And management is pretty pissed off at corporate taking away their pensions making them pay higher premiums for their healthcare, and their pay raises were so bad a lot are pissed off.

I do get a chuckle when I think about it part-time supervisor doing this job
Somebody unloaded the trailer for 2 weeks and they went to management
No way in hell were they ready for this

This. I think when UPS came out a few weeks ago and according to Sean “they pleaded with the Teamsters to reopen negotiations” and then UPS said we plan to have a deal in place by July 5th, O’Brien just kept up the rhetoric on social media. You better give us this. Like what’s the point. Why wouldn’t you tone it down and see what happens. I think that rubbed someone high up the wrong way. I 100% believe we are striking.
Where are guys who work the export of international packages. That’s where the new money will come from. They need to get more packages

They probably don't fit.

No new packages if we go on strike
