How do you know is that what your TDU buddies told you to say
They are pushing me as well. I do about 75 stops a day and am compensated at 140k. I just lived up a prescription for my wife who has the flu. Five bucks when it used to be about 2.50. Do you think this bothers me? It does a little but compared to others I live like a (friend) in place of the (r) rucking king. I drive union made cars and do t go to walmart. I try to buy union made. I do my part. I'm involved heavily in union politics and I think your way of thinking should be rethought. We all can lose touch and I think you may have. You can take this as the ultimate disrespect or try a look at it from outside the box. Compare yourself to others that do a job that requires no education and you are at the top. This country (meaning the majority) doesn't like that you have what you have anymore. Think about it.
We have hired 36 full time drivers this year in my building alone. A bunch with 6 months seniority. It took me a whole lot longer that that brother. I don't feel a thing. Move up and make it a career or take what it is. A part time job.

You forget I was in that position and I rose to a lot better spot. It wasn't hard at all to get there.

I know what we have. record profits,no reason to lose It.
But I am not getting my moneys worth,from the union!...period.
Wht do I pay into a strike fund,that they will never call?
We got sold out. agree,disagree...whatever.
We do not work for the union,they work for us.
Unfortunately,they act like our congress.

I don't think Hall will distance himself as 2016 gets closer. I think he will be rewarded for his current contributions well and will stay put. I hope somehow the membership gets involved to the point there are proposal meetings(mandatory) by all locals, so all members can voice their opinions. If the low voter turnout continues, why should the union worry about us. Read the new contract, and go to a meeting. If you want to change things, you can't keep waiting for the next guy., it starts with you!
I called his office,several times.
No reply,shocker!

That's strange because every time I've called during business hours someone answers. I'll call tomorrow and see if the answer

You want to start at $25/hr? Are you high?
The receptionist answers, but he Is always in a meeting.
Trying more ways to sell us out!...thats my guess.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
My problem is the teamsters don't need to be using my money from ups to subsidize other teamsters pension and healthcare.
With all the money ups gives the union if it all just went to us we would pay nothing for insurance ever and our pension would be huge.
