UPS fighting back against Big Labor

[Polishprince]

The corporation is training Scabs to take over the UPS routes and keep the company in business, just in case Big Labor tries to take down the delivery giant with a strike.

94% of all Americans are strictly non-union, but we still need out packages delivered in a timely manner.

Thank God UPS is on top of this, and thank God that America's Scabs are stepping up to keep the country moving. Big Labor should be saluting those who are stepping up to keep the company running as they enjoy some time on the picket line.

UPS to train 'scabs' as talks with union for 340,000 workers stalls

Yeah, it is great that we can keep our workers making less. Wouldn't want to do something stupid and bring back the middle class, now would we?

I wish them luck, but hiring and training 340,000 workers (many of them drivers) in a few short weeks is a difficult and probably impossible task.

You will need 1.5 to twice as many scabs to replace em. Good luck with that. Interact with 2-3 UPS drivers on my route on daily basis. They earn their money

This is about keeping UPS in business and maintaining these jobs.

The Scab Americans are doing a service in keeping the company in business at UPS, while the union guys are on the picket line.

How much do you think these regular UPS drivers will make at a new job if the company goes under like the union is trying to do?

Thanks for detailing why you guys have won exactly one popular vote in the last 30 years.

Its bewildering how anti-worker you guys can be while professing that you're for the "little guy".

I'm not "anti-worker" at all. I support the right of workers to decide whether they want to be involved with funding the Big Labor Movement or not.

And considering the fact that 94% of Americans don't pay Big Labor dues, that's the majority.

Unions are not trying to put a business under.

Unions are not trying to put a business under.

The Teamsters are threatening to shut down UPS, which would put the company under if they are successful.

Fortunately, the Scabs are going to make sure that the company stays in business until the Teamsters can make it to the bargaining table and negotiate.

Shutting down is always the last resort. Neither side wants that. But workers should be able to bargain as a group.

Yet you're hoping the scabs take the jobs of folks who want more job security, higher pay, better working conditions etc...

So yes...you are anti-worker.

PS: After a few years your hallowed scabs will want the same things--except they won't have any way to collectively bargain for it.

Why is Big Labor bad but Big Business good?
