Be Wise Organize in 2007
Well it looks like another anti-union meeting was held in Whittier again. With four managers and a regional manager, telling their reasons why they don't want the Union here. But when asked about a local driver who is in his 60's and can't afford to retire because his penison is not enough( with no benefits also!), to live on. Not one manager had a response! Even one of the managers in that meeting has mentioned before that the Union has a "BETTER PENSION" than we have here! Be Wise And Organize! Get to a organizing meeting and get educated.

Express Employees Get 1% Raises while FedEx Officers Get 3.5% Raise
Although the admission by FedEx in its annual report that it has received a subpoena from the Dept. of Justice in its investigation into price fixing in the admission of fuel surcharges has made the headlines, the company also filed a quarterly report (Form 8-K) with the SEC that laid out the pay and bonuses for the 5 highest executive officers.
The money quote is: “Each named executive officer’s annual base salary was increased by 3.5%.” But of course, the galling compensation package doesn’t stop with just salary.
For example, let’s look at Fred Smith’s basic package - but remember this doesn’t include stock options or other pay that are disclosed in the annual proxy:
Annual Salary = $1,399,848 (with his 3.5% raise)
Annual Bonus = $2,679,147
Incentive Bonus = $3,375,000
2006 SALARY PLUS BONUS = $7,453,995

MedStar Workers Say Yes to Teamsters
December 28, 2006
On December 21, MedStar workers voted in favor of joining Local 714 in Berwyn, Illinois.
“This is a great victory for the MedStar workers and the Teamsters,” said Aubrey Smith, Local 714 Business Representative. “The vote proves that this group is ready to stand up to their employers and get some changes made.”
There are 139 new Teamster members at MedStar in Bellwood, Illinois, including drivers, dispatchers, mechanics, attendants, billers and trainers. They approached the Teamsters in October after MedStar management took away all personal days.
“Local 714 is very happy to welcome the new members,” Smith said. “The MedStar workers needed a strong voice. Now that they are Teamsters, they have one.
