Hollywood might not be the only industry that’s on strike — pretty soon, it could be parcel carriers who are hitting the picket lines as well … namely, thousands of UPS workers.
Upwards of 325,000 UPS employees are primed to stop working starting on August 1 if their Teamsters union and their UPS bosses can’t strike a new labor contract … which has been getting ironed out in recent months, but which has hit a snag on the money front.
The union’s leader, Prez Sean O’Brien, has been quoted with some fiery language over the prospect of UPS workers hitting the streets. During a rally speech in Atlanta Saturday, per CNN Business, he said, “We’ve legalized, strategized, now it’s time to pulverize.”
