Just in case you haven't figured it out yet!

Let's look at the big picture. Oz elected was by the government using the IRB/IIO to clear the way so their owned candidates could win. Some of these candidates were caught, involved, and discovered, but mysteriously were given a repreave. In return, they are owned
by the Justice Dept. By the way, Presser, Carey, Hoffa also owned. In any event, the members were manipulated by a very sophisticated social media campaign, targeted at each area of the union. White supremists, rednecks, tough guys, frustrated members, underrepresented members, who bought the message hook, line, and sinker.
They took office, fired anyone who had a brain on the International staff, but more importantly, anyone who could provide information to the local union officers and officials and who have significant contacts that could expose them. They continued to use the IIO as their weapon to go after officers who might oppose them, did oppose them, or who are associated with anyone who intimidated them.
They put all the ass kisses and the TDUers, and a few experienced people on the payroll to buy their silence.
WELCOME TO UPS NEGOTIATIONS:
Same full blown political campaign, social media onslaught. Tough talk, strike, on the street, etc, etc. They depended on the lack of opposition during the theatrics of negotiations, as they had everyone scared to death of being charged with nothing, or losing their extra psychecks. The deal was cut, UPS allowed themselves to be beatup so oz could sound tough and militant. They let things go like 22.4, that wasn't being used much, and that could be bragged about by the PR machine. Air conditioners, when someone is in and out of the truck a 150 times aren't that effective, and won't show up for years, but the media picked it up and added to the very expensive and massive PR machine. They contined to scare the non-militant super majority of the members about striking. Then more theatrics and finally the company comes crawling back to finish the show. Phew!!! A TA!!! Everyone relieved! In the meantime, Yellow is allowed to die, 22/28k members sacrificed, no attempt to save them again, coincidentally right before the UPS vote!
The biggest want of UPS is to hold down the WCTPTF because the UPS pension fund doesn't want to compete and match them. (Say Chris Langen). So no increase in contributions for 5 years!!! United Teamsters say in their spin attempt to bs the West members, there is no freeze, "your pension will grow $1500 a year under the new contract!" What they fail to say in the disingenuous bs, is that this is using existing contributions, not any NEW INCREASES!. The PR campaign will assure the contract passes, but this is the beginning of what a union run by government controlled people will be like. Too bad...
crazy guy from 952...

White supremists? Rednecks? REALLY?

This is the same BS a guy named Rome Aloise used to spout. Everybody is controlled by the government because he got busted selling out the members. Rome was a perfect example of a guy who never worked rank-and-file and looked down his nose at working people. In his mind, Teamsters are white supremacists and rednecks because they don’t vote the way he tells them to and they are easily manipulated by social media instead of being able to think for themselves. Yeah, just a crazy guy from 952, yeah right. GTFOH!
