I guess my follow up questions/comments would be:
How does being a part of the vote no movement make your arguments about the contract invalid? It's a non sequitur known as an association fallacy, which is an ad hominem attack.
The matter of the leadership of the union is and always will be political. If you think the "vote no" folks are only taking that position because they think it will advance their careers in the union, that's one thing, and I would ask for some proof of that. But if these people are legitimately dissatisfied with the actions of the leadership, what is wrong with how they are approaching the issue? It's political? Duh, if you want to replace current leadership it has to be through political action, or possibly legal or regulatory action if applicable. The problem is that the leadership is what it is right now, and unless it takes years to ratify a new contract, there won't be another election before it does get ratified. If people legitimately do not like the contract, how else would they go about getting their views out if the official IBT stance is that the contract is good and should pass?

Not defending her so much as expressing my distaste for how maynard approached the matter. He could have done a better job getting his point across, and been funnier, if he had been classier.
I disagree. This is just a different taste in comedy.

I just wanna know how they got Rachel Maddow to be in their vote yes propaganda video. Also, when did Rachel Maddow get hit in the face with a brick.....
That is horrible!! In New England, cover drivers go through regular progression but achieve top rate. We have life long bid cover position making $37 an hour.
Thanks for explaining common knowledge. In Mew England we have all of these. All go through progression and all top out at top rate. Nobody is getting $10 less for doing the same job here. No wonder why the west loves 22.4.

"Cut and Run" and to hades with the ones left behind is the golden rule with these (mean spirited) contracts, and each one is getting worst. "Failed Leadership"....
People really look at this total contract package, not just one particular issue, now look what is happening to our economy, stock market and the forecast for even more growth and profits presented to the company's shareholders.
When you vote ask the question if you truly feel that you are getting what you asked for and not settling for less with this contract?

And where is this secret "few weeks" of volume stored? Get a grip folks.

So just maybe, the volume is heavier this week (just like last year and the year before) because of the 3 day weekend where everyone ordered stuff on line as they sat around enjoying the weekend. Discounts? Did they weather suck where you live? Guess what people did. Please take a deep breath, there is no conspiracy.
Do not forget this is also the last heavy vacation week for most centers....

Well if there was a conspiracy, that's exactly what someone trying to hide it would say....

Yep.
And if you look at the Central Region language....
They still have to post your start time on Friday and the top 90% of the classification
is still afforded the guarantee of 40 hours for the week.
