I've yet to hear anything positive for America fall out of his mouth. His platform is the perpetration of hate and fear. * Kamala wants to ensure our freedom, democracy and the building of the American dream. She wants our laws to mean something. A Democratic Congress would allow them to get something done so America can move ahead. You don't have to agree with her just decide which way you want America to go. djt...Hateful cruel dictatorship or Harris...democratic freedom and a path for the American dream.

    People along with locals aren’t enforcing because they are complacent or fraternizing. My local wants to take a vote to stop all meetings through the summer. Then maybe they should cut our dues if they want to take the summer off. Fight the rail, fight the drop ship. And when are the books on the new contract being sent out? Talk about members not being informed, it sucks not having a physical book to use. We need to be able to transfer with out quitting. The union needs to stop helping UPS, help its members get work!

    Any chance I could get in touch with someone who takes the contract seriously with some experience? I've got a question about article 3 in the Central Supplement. Our newly elected BA, albeit has been a teamster for 40 years, gave me an answer that makes no sense. I try to keep an open mind about "just getting an answer I don't want to hear" but this dilemma regarding layoffs doesn't make any sense.

    Thanks everyone! I recently had an ojs ride. One supervisor on two days and a different one on the third day. They helped me immensely. Holding doors. Picking what stops to go to next. Held an elevator. I love that elevator because it has a very distinct alarm when someone stops the door from closing. Then when I filed the grievance, it is article 37 section 2 btw, they claim holding doors is a courtesy! hahaha Throw you heat ride in the garbage!

      If you have sufficient evidence of this. And there is a zero tolerance policy in place...file a grievance and turn in your form to your local Steward or Vice President or President to get this information in the hands of your local...and you have a contract with the employer for proper and inappropriate behavior! If you feel that your claim is falling on deaf ears...go to your computer and file with EEOC to get the ball going about harassment in the work place. Most importantly, rest assured that union brothers and sisters will be there to rally around you and others to be your support...take care

    My first thought was "this is a joke right?" lol. Second thought "fired for taking pictures in the building"...(thumbnail for video). I could tell my union rep until my face is blue and I pass out that sups work through out the day. He says nothing...I tell our BA when I see him how much sups work on preload and he says give me the dates, times & who. I'm at the end of the belt, I can't see it all... Hell, they have a part time sup that goes in on Monday around 3-4am to add-cuts before the drivers get there. Our preload works Tues-Sat. Preloaders and drivers have brought this up at union meetings and they say well, if you catch them working, write down the time, who & what they were doing. Who is going to go in at 3-4am probably to a locked building & catch him working? P.S. I fought this battle for years alone. Nobody wanted to help...A couple weeks after I gave up, the sups were working again, someone came up and said "Aren't you going to say anything?" My response was "nope, I'm done. They can do whatever." That person got mad and walked away talking shyt...Everyone is too scared...Our last union rep that actually had some balls got fired for some BS...

      Become a steward, then you can go around and check for supervisors working on your off hours. If they won’t let you because you are working I believe there is language about needing to keep enough staff for stewards to do union stuff like contract enforcement. It sucks having no back up though, im in the same boat to a degree. Theres alot of support among the employees, but the union itself does not want to rock the boat.
