I can admit it when I am wrong.

Ok, I was trying to help by getting the DHL threads more exposure in Teamster Talk. But clearly at a time like this DHL needs a forum all is own.

I present to you - The old/new DHL Forum.

Thanks a million Phil. Unfortunately we drivers of the wee little trucks still get direspected by our freight brethren sometimes. Even if we drug a trailer before we worked here. I'm not enamored by what I have heard about this contract, but will wait for the finished product. I'll ask you Phil directly. The timing on this is critical. Surely not going to be ratified or voted down by 4/1. To make it timely, we may not have contracts in hand to read and use a highlighter to raise our questions in an open forum meeting. How do we Joe drivers handle this in the most important contract we are faced with?

Now the contract, PUD proposal and regional supplements are out and being touted as fovorable.
I beg to differ and I believe the vote will show that. For the first time among the several contracts I have been thru I got a mailout from the local, again pressing how good it is. Oh boy.

Sounds like the propaganda that followed our contract. Phone calls and mailings from UPS and the IBT.

I worked at DHL for the first time yesterday. I was at DHL JCC. I learned how to use the scanner, and had a great day. When I woke up this morning my back was sore a f--k! Good sore. Great Teamsters at DHL JCC in SF, some great Teamsters at DHL nationwide, as well.

Glad you Brothers/Sisters got your forum back! Thanks Brother Phil! You're the best, dude!

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

We still have a whole lot of good Teamsters here at DHL in BOS who learn more about other things by visiting this site. It follows along with them coming to see what little there may be on "our" forum. We aim to please.
