A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

UPS is so fundamental to commerce in America that I suspect the Taft–Hartley Act might come into play. If I understand this bullshit correctly, the government can intervene directly in the strike - similar to the shit they pulled back in December with the railroad strike.
UPS is a private company, they aren't subject to the RLA and nothing in Taft-Hartley has anything to say about a single union going on strike.
USPS is the federal service operating like a business, and since they're federal employees they aren't supposed to go on strike, however that didn't stop them in the 70s.
Oh baby. I hope UPS hurts and capitulates in a spectacular fashion to set an example for others: treat your workers well, or hurt then treat your workers well.
OK, but if they stop working for UPS, who will they work for? Is another company on the market looking for 340k workers?
That's not how strikes work.
