    From the same O'Brien kiss-ass that called Joe Biden the most labor friendly president and the "militant" Teamsters that allowed the government to screw the railroaders? Is the Boston fluff*r off his meds?

      No, he’s just out of his mind.

        My first reaction to this guy when I read it was, "Holy shit, he really wants a strike even with a good contract?" This is what happens when you pump someone up on social media. Like I said before, all you reformers from 2013 that threw your support behind Sean O'brien should be ashamed of yourselves. You get all the filth that comes with SOB. He brought all those Hoffacers on board with him. Now, they all are sucking up like nothing happened in '13.

        Sad!

          Greg Kerwood, David Allen and Sean Orr who were MIA in 2013 are all of the sudden the leaders of the Vote No movement, GTFO!!!

            I think we should ask our president Sean O’Brien just what he thinks about this . After all it seems this member Kerwood has been the biggest Oz supporter out there . He has been carrying to O’Brien banner and defending every action that has occurred . Kerwood seems to be switching his allegiances to the TDU concept of strike at all costs . Perhaps his membership in the TDU steering committee has influenced mind .

                Kerwood is a 🤡. He’s a package car driver that thinks he’s a hedge fund manager. He also can suck a golf ball through a garden hose.

                  "He also can suck a golf ball through a garden hose", Which happens to be the most useful of talents under the OZ/TDU administration.

                  O'Brien should consider hiring him to run the failing New England Pension Fund, LMFAO!!!!

                    Let me get this straight , negotiate a good contract , then strike anyway ? So if you are a cop and the suspect surrenders you cuff him and THEN shoot him!?

                    Here’s my question Kerwood have YOU ever been on strike versus UPS ?

                      I was quite surprised by Kerwood's rhetoric here. I absolutely agree and think the labor movement in general needs this strike to happen. We will see what the TAs end up looking like soon enough....

                        You are willing to lose it all like Overnite? So, if the company offers a satisfactory contract, you will still go out?

                          It all depends on how the "satisfactory contract" is. I know some agreements in my supplement and riders but the majority of it I am in the dark like my region is.

                        There's a widely held belief on the left of our union that a strike that shows power and results in victory is the only way to organize Amazon and others. Its been a TDU discussion point as well as DSA.

                          Angry DSA members leaked out that Sean Orr has been warned to tone it down about striking and the $25 starting wage. That he himself has acknowledge a deal will be reached before the end of the month.

                          The Teamster Mobilize and the Southern Supplement members are already gearing up to Vote No and all the DSA - TDUers working for the IBT like Nick Perry were crying. Hypocrite scumbags that were Vote No gun-ho in 2013 and 2018.
