What is the REAL reason negotiations have stalled?

[Thebrownblob]

Why is that?

Because usually the company and those to Chicago locals don’t agree, but this time they did. But somehow we can’t get the national done?

Yeah that’s weird

 

[nWo]

Lol, and there it is. You’re right PT are much more deserving, the way they bust their ass and all, lol, what a joke

The world does not revolve around you. Raising pt wages takes nothing away from you.

Does not revolve around you either. Raising FT wages takes nothing away from you.

And they will go up. They always do.

They do bust their ass.

 

[catstalking]

your arguments about PT vs FT are pretty cringey

your goal should be the conversion of PT jobs to FT jobs by any means necessary, as the very existence of PT jobs is antithetical to the Union ethos

arguing whether or not they work as hard? lol are you ing serious, you sound like some wall street suit

Don't they usually start negotiating later than us also. I'm probably wrong but I thought they did.

Honestly, I’m not sure you could be right I only know they usually are not done before the national.

Yup… for 4hrs

We had a lot of inflation these last 3yrs. Our “top tier wages” no longer buy as much as they did under the Republican administration, plus on top of that we were guaranteed a “historic contract” FT wages need to reflect all that. Hell we get $1-$1.25 a year in a normal contract let alone a contract after all this inflation and record earnings by the company.

You’re undermining the part timers. Who’s going to do it then if we all quit?

Dude. Your wages will go up. Trust me. Stop attacking your coworkers. It's disgusting.

I’m sure we’ll manage

The PT starting wage is a massive issue that SOB is addressing. SOB addressing that does not mean he doesn't care about ft drivers. Some of you constantly talking down to part timers is getting old. It's not funny. It's not accurate. It's goes against everything the Teamsters are supposed to stand for.

PT wages have been neglected for 40 years. Time to turn it around.

Lol, it’s just funny what you consider an attack. Just a bunch of wieners we have anymore. I’m not attacking you. I actually got down on your level to see if you would strike for FT if you got what you wanted but the FT didn’t. And you said no. That is no different from anything you said to me.

 

[Jkloc420]

I bet they are negotiating behind closed doors

Oh ok so you get to strike for whatever you want and we have to like it, meanwhile we make enough and don’t deserve to ask for more, right?

I really doubt if very many FT will strike because they are not making enough money.
