Ford
KearsargeCoop
Baseball, dart board
We have two of those are our center as well. Mostly used for shuttling, but every once in a while there's an 05 route that'll go out with many of the "EC" stops.

Less spending on things like t-shirts, fringe minority caucus, super high salaries? More on lawyers?
They have to get full accounting of their expenses at the meetings

I as a package car driver made more than any business agent, and almost as much as the president of My local, there is a special strike and organizing fund set up to pay for things like T-shirts to keep membership united.

I always thought we were all just plain old Teamsters? Guess not.

We are. But I have gotten the opportunity to work with groups that help intercity youth. And I would say my opinion has changed as to some of the hurdles some people have to get over that are different than others, and I have no problem with people advocating for those people. I didn’t live that life and I probably don’t have any credibility with them. Some of these young men through no fault of their own some of them through fault of their own but I am 100% about trying to help people move to the middle class and if it takes groups that they feel comfortable with go for it.

UPS hates RPCDS
They love us for the exceptional service we provide. They hate paying us more than an Amazon driver.

I’m sure they do but they’re growing up hearing about mass extinction, ecological collapse, impending water shortages, crop failure, uninhabitable global temperatures, expected all between 2030-2050.
The future is grim and most young folk can’t even buy a house as it’s all being bought up by huge firms some of them based in China and Canada. Even at the rate rpcd’s are paid they’re being outbid or gouged on interest rates making it not even worth it.
They’re trying to enjoy what little comforts they can while they can as an aging retiring generation makes off with a fortune.
I thought Y2k was going to be the end of the world?
As far as the older generation having money some do some don't
When you work hard your whole life and you scrimp and save and work some extra overtime or an extra job to get ahead, there's nothing wrong with that.

No offense, sir and I say this with respect and I know life isn’t easy, but this attitude is exactly why young generations are in this predicament.
Blowing off the problems you’ll never face and not understanding why they can’t do it just because you did it.
It’s just not the same anymore. The gilded age is over.
I blame the parents for lots of this.
You got to teach the kids responsibility.
Living in the basement until you're 40 years old because you don't want to work 15 or 20 hours a week doesn't cut it.
Unfortunately too many parents don't do there job.
That's why sending my kids to college and paying for a good portion of it was a major priority for me
I want them to have the tools to get a good job but not be buried in debt.
I left them with enough yet not to bury them but enough to be responsible
Now they have a halfway decent job and they are home owners.
