"Teamsters Union President Vows to Crush UPS in Looming Strike"

Teamsters union President Sean O'Brien has declared that it's time to "pulverize" as negotiations for a new contract with UPS reach a critical stage. While 95% of the contract has been negotiated, the focus now is on economics, particularly the pay of part-time workers. O'Brien stated that if a deal is not reached by July 31, the union will go on strike starting August 1. The strike would have a significant impact on UPS's supply chain solutions, both domestically and internationally, as the pilots union has pledged not to work if the Teamsters go on strike. Part-time workers, who feel they are not adequately compensated for their contributions, are prepared to go without pay to fight for fair treatment.
