    ends two-tiered classification for drivers

    Good! I think this was what pissed off UPS teamsters and lead to this far more militant and adversarial union leadership.

    And they got the goods! Hopefully unions elsewhere see this and excise the centrist sellouts in their leadership.

    I just read the NYT article on my phone and this seems like an exceptional win for the workers. The small business I work at uses UPS exclusively because Fedex charges so much for daily pickup so I would have had to run to USPS every day with a car full of packages but I would have gladly done so until the UPS workers got what they needed. It really looks to me, based on what I read in the article, that UPS didn’t really push back too much at the end there.
