    Ups states 70% of its employees are union members so that would leave about 146.000 members not unionized, though UPS handles about 6-7% of gdp in the US daily, that would be bad news bears for the US economy. Afaik UPS only has one Union and thats the Teamsters, so if they strike, all 340k strike.

    Heres a good explanation of the situation and recent history,

      That’s great news, thanks. I read that would be the largest single-employer strike in US history.

      Hopefully Biden won’t do to them what Regan did to the Air Traffic Controllers, “essential Amazon” and all.
