The Spin

Narrative A

The union must know that UPS is in a tough spot financially as it comes out of the pandemic with stiffer competition. Teamsters leadership might have promised their membership they would be tougher in negotiations, but it’s in the best interest of both sides to come to a win-win agreement that will prevent a major disruption in the US economy.

Narrative B

This is on UPS as the multibillion-dollar company is being stingy with its offers — which don’t keep up with the cost of living, especially for part-time workers. Perhaps a strike is the only way to get the union’s message across and convince UPS to adequately pay its employees.
