Let them strike. Most of the workers want to work and hope they will cross picket lines. O’Brien gets paid, either way, so he doesn’t care. Ask any driver, they don’t care about A/C as their doors are always open. They want vents in the back of the truck to get rid of the heat. Listen to the drivers, not Union reps.
Sources? You don’t appear to know how the process works? The DRIVERS voted–overwhelmingly–to strike. I guess we’ll see if many cross picket lines, but I highly doubt it.
David it’d be best if you knew whereof you speak, before you post.
“My neighborhood where I grew up in Boston, if two people had a disagreement and you had nothing to do with it–you just kept walking,” O’Brien said. “We don’t need anybody getting involved in this fight,” he said.
Ignorant comment. The White House does have a dog in the fight. Its called the American people and the economy.

A strike by UPS will have very negative consequences for far more people
than most people realize. It could shut down the country’s commerce
within 48 hours.
I don’t think the strike will be quite as destructive and impactful as the UPS strike
as the 1996 one. FedEx is much larger now and you now have Amazon also.
But make no mistake, the strike will take its toll.
O’Brien doesn’t need the Whitehouse to weigh in. The Whitehouse is supporting
the Teamtesters regardless.
