Jordan Zakarin, More Perfect Union, This is not true. Are you coulding with UPS in pushing outright lies. Damn we are screwed when outfits like you are obviously working at the behest of another corporation. Disgusting. Keep selling BS it will not last as long as you think and will end equally as bad. Shame on you all!

I'm really bummed to see incomplete information being printed as facts here, even the claim that all trucks will receive AC next year is bogus. UPS will very likely drag their heels for years installing AC, as the language only requires them to start installing AC in newly acquired package cars after January 2024. I'm glad we got so much, but it's concerning to see half truths being paraded around as "no concessions."

This is not a win and you are helping the Teamsters leadership spread propaganda. They screwed over 200,000 part timers & who knows how many warehouse workers.

you also left out:

Personal Vehicle Deliveries

Potential for Sunday work required where it isn't now

the fact that the union was pushing for 10,000 part timers

A/Cs in the warehouse

You also misled on the point of A/C in the trucks - only deliveries on NEW TRUCKS PRODUCED AFTER 1/1/2024 will have A/C. 2023 models (which will be in service until up to 2040!) will NOT have A/C retrofitted. The drivers get fans and a big middle finger. 68,000 trucks will not have A/C in 2024. Stop selling this and omitting facts.

Each union win adds momentum to the pro-union movement. It's heartening to see these successes.
