You asked for it.... Now you got it.

That's the mindset of some of your current members, they don't gaf as long as they have their share of the pie...

Some already know they won't last 30 years of slinging cardboard.

Others have weak union areas that can't band together.

A few stood their ground and got massive firings, but eventually got their jobs back?

I'm just someone looking at the dying union shop, it's still strong overall nationally though

Plus it's kinda wrong to take initiation fees from the pt workforce, do it when they go ft

If letter was signed by Sean O’Brien it would mean something, it’s all a show for Hoffa.

Or the company's offer so far is that bad!

Would you expect anything different?

Would you expect anything different?

Actually yes I would. Especially with a lot more at stake this time!

Or like last strike send out empty trucks for the illusion that it was business as usual...

Funny when they left with the back door open, no packages in it, went to lunch and came back with it open acting like they actually did something. Friggin hilarious.

I don't feel striking this summer will be a good thing. The company will just get rid of the union. It's too competitive out there now in logistics and they know it. This isn't 1997 anymore. They mistreat everyone with harassment, etc. but they don't care - it's all about the stockholders. Shame on Abney as he "used to" be in our shoes.

Don't see that happening.

LOL THIS COMPANY WOULD IMPLODE IF A STRIKE TOOK PLACE.
YALL FOCUS SO MUCH ON THE DRIVER WORK, THESE UPS SUPS AND MANAGERS WOULD FILL THEIR PANTS WITH CRAP IF THEY HAD TO LOAD VEHICLES, DO CLERK WORK, OR CLEAN THE BATHROOMS.

"If' it comes down to a strike, can the company hire replacements for when we are on strike? Or can they only use management to cover all the union jobs?

This shouldn't happen if there is a picket line outside the hub preventing any scabs from working

But are they allowed to hire replacements?

They got to go out with a “teammate”.. pretty funny seeing your Onroad going out with the cute HR girl in her oversized uniform ...then getting that attaboy from someone 15 levels above them that they kept the company going while the teamsters were on strike....they even received a little plaque stating that....maybe if the company wouldn’t have played games at the last minute none of that would have even happen....

 

[Nike]

Bro it's their company they really can do whatever they want frankly, but having a loud boisterous picket line will make just about anybody stop and think.

 

[silenze]

No replacement would want to work 70hr weeks.

I’ve been enjoying telling them I’ll see if they can do better than me come August when they try to correct me or tell me anything.
