Disregard and Disrespect Indeed












  1. Disregard for the fact that the Union retirement committee knew everything about the changes early in 2011
  2. Disregard for the fact that union counsel rejected an offer from the company to act as fiduciary to the plan
  3. Disregard for the fact that the law prevents non-fiduciaries from having full plan information
  4. Disrespect for the membership by lying and turning a change in third-party administration into a plan change when plan benefits have been unchanged
  5. Disrespect for other employees by putting up billboards and informational pickets that Lupees knows will drive owners to fly the competition
  6. Disrespect for all employees by lying by omission and not revealing that the plan fiduciary is a retirement committee made up of employees and not senior leadership
  7. Disregarding years of Strong Union progress, unity, and sacrifice by acting like and partnering with the very truck-driver union we spent millions of dollars separating from
  8. Disregarding Union Duty of Fair Representation by spending dues money and union credibility organizing other employee groups across the globe on a foundation of lies and half-truths that will bring about the end of the company
This is not Emery Airlines, Lupees, so why are you acting like it?

#Honk!
