You say, "No one's suggesting that we go threaten UPS shareholders with a strike."

I'm with you brother. It's just that we can't threaten to strike NOW, because we are technically still mid-contract. At the end of the contract, if we don't get what we need this time, HELL YES!! We need to be ready to vote down whatever comes out of the back room blackout sessions, and push it towards the end of the contract, then start threatening to strike.

Solidarity!
