thoughts from Teamsters?
Thought is this is OK for Union Drivers but unless he fights for Owner Operators and Rates it's only good for Company Drivers
Sure
I was a lifelong teamster/Democrat. Since 1982. The democrats abandoned the working man in favor of open borders and government dependency.
Teamster strong
Local 63
I agree 100 percent
American workers are being taken advantage of
Even as a Teamster, I see supervisor bend union rules and look for a loophole every time
Thoughts? You cut off his speech, how would i conclude from the bit of info we received from your video?
All I heard was everything I already know, corporate greed, low pay for tons of hours of work, learned that when I turned 18 fresh from highschool.
Hes spoke nothing about his plans as president in the 8 minutes.
I also didn't grow up in unions, I grew up with family mocking unions and their democratic nature.
I worked boy, I worked xD
All that mouth and it’s been exactly a year since I got a call for work at Yellow. Yet he still gets a check. He gave up on us and only cared about UPS. My life went down the toilet after that. Thanks for nothing.
He just running his big mouth pie hole
Yellow was failing far longer than last year. If you know anything it was doomed when it bought roadway.
Same brother I’m a yellow victim too. Teamsters didn’t help me. Our local helped certain guys that were in the inner club and left rest of us for dead. All set with the union I’m done being a political pawn in their games
@@craiggardner6230 yellow needed to consolidate companies and jobs to continue operating. the union said no. thats the bottom line.
If you allowed your life too fail because of someone else that's on you
People are onto how the teamsters are just a legal mob. They just take your dues and do nothing for you.
@@Tyronewiggums1 except give you a pension and great healthcare that basically costs nothing, lol
@@tron7116 yeah, and what are your dues per week? Do they have your back when the company goes under? There’s plenty of better companies and unions out there. Teamsters are not what they once were. I wouldn’t be surprised if they stopped pension benefits in the next few years.
You think you can do a better job negotiating wages and benifits
@@Tyronewiggums1 I make six figures even after dues lolll and I get 35000$ per year in health insurance benefits hahahah cope and seethe harder. I don’t even think you drive or have ever driven, bc anyone knows working for any non union company u get paid basically nothing, no good health insurance.
@@tron7116 I was a teamster, I’m not trolling. When you boil it all down, they’re taking advantage of you financially. I now work for another company with 100% health premiums paid. The teamsters are frauds now and I hope you see it.
My question is when he dragged about UPS, and helping negotiating their living wage, why didn't he say anything about the layoffs at UPS since this went into effect, also where were the Teamsters when they started allowing MEXICAN, CANADIAN TRUCK DRIVERS TO CROSS OVER the border and come into the US, to pickup freight eliminating thousands of AMERICAN truck driving jobs, and that under a Democratic president, NATO, so as I agree with the fair wage, what about lack of production for companies, and can FED EX do what UPS does? Cheaper? Better? I don't know exactly, and I'm not anti union, but I also know that I don't see the them on the border protesting cheap foreign labor, unless I'm missing something.
FedEx does what UPS does... They just do it by contracting the work out to 3rd parties so that the drivers get paid half as much with no benefits. I thought UPS would collapse with the last negotiation but I'm glad they didn't. I worked as a fedex ground contracted delivery driver for 4 years and it is a mess. I hope UPS sticks it out and continues to show it can be done while giving their employees a good living.
The teamsters opted to endorse Reagan after deregulation of the trucking industry that decimated the trucking industry. Reagan was not the answer from organized labor and did a lot of harm to working class america. UPS/fed ex rates are very comparable. UPS tends to provide better on time reliability and also produces higher profit margins. Fed ex model relies on contractors and has a larger work force, doing less work because they choose cheap contractor work. They can't get workers to work longer harder days paying peanuts so more workers are needed compared to UPS.
NATO?
@@frankgrimm387 as a consumer i cannot afford to use UPS. they cost too much. im sure lots of people feel the same way
@bigd835 people use the government shipping USPS as the cheap option. Not fed ex. UPS moves double the shipping volume as FDX
Republicans got a photo op and teamsters got a national platform to speak to Republicans on workers issues. But the majority of republican politicians will never allow pro worker legislation to pass
Can you tell the rest of the teamsters this
@@improvisedsurvival5967 you can tell them but they aren’t going to listen to you
Actions Speak Louder Than Words.
EXACTLY
Put this man in charge of the truckin industry there is NO REASON a trucker should be OTR working 14 hours a day for 6 days a week and only be making 300 bucks a week!! It’s criminal!!! Make them pay us what we are worth! Without truckers THE ECONOMY DIES!
$300 per week? Stop trolling. There are company drivers making $12k per month.
@@kingloc6042 well I’m making 300 a week and so are most new drivers these days. If you know a company that pays 1000 a week guaranteed to new drivers I’m all ears
@@kingloc6042 most make 1100 a week or less.
@@kingloc6042 I WISH I was trolling my last 3 paychecks at this current company have not been over 400
@@kingloc6042 ask me how I know truckers are getting paid $300-$500 a week…
What about truckers who aren't covered by the mafia???
@mamabear1260 Careful you’ll get all the union fan boys worked up and they will start telling you how good their insurance is. lol.
Half way through watching his speech. He ain’t saying nothing important at all. Waste of time to be honest
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯 BIG FACTS !!!
Are you sure your not a corporate bot?
They are professional of lying
Lol you're not a teamsters at all
My company’s union drivers have lost a lot of business for us. They won’t go the extra mile or out of their way to keep the customers happy.
The very definition of unions.
That is a management problem
It’s not the driver it’s the management is poorly planning cus they don’t wanna add bids to getthose customers serviced they want the driver to go extra mile daily not once in a while. They want to abuse the driver and the driver is refusing to be abused all cus they wanna save $ not hiring another driver.
@@MetalTeamster the driver interacts directly with the customer on site. not the management. quit pointing fingers. sounds like you arent willing to help either, just blame someone else
@@bigd835 I’m a driver but have never joined the Union. We have 1500 divers and I have been driver of the year.
I was a Teamster and worked for Holland/yellow. He stood by us as we voted to close the doors to that corrupt company, so I am proud to see him stand with Trump.
@@danrichards3969 we all had hard times I drove for Big R before Yellow bought everything. Roadway was a dam good family owned company bu Wickham had a lot to do with Big R got sold .in 2004 . Yellow Freight was always in trouble. Big R covered there Health and welfare twice and wages twice in 2002 at 40 million don't blame tge Teamsters if you didn't handle your money right . Don't blame O'Brian blame Jimmy Hoffa junior for the crap that went own at Yellow. Yellow bought Preston in 1995 and closed it in 1999 . Hoffa junior was a piece of work . Union buster for Yellow Freight broke union at Kroger, Gordon food's, Meyer food chain Central Transport in 1995 I was on the picket line . Yellow Freight was a trash Company that a piece of crap by the name of Bill Zollars ran and Welch was trash . Yellow Freight was ran by thieves. . Your q scab that came to Yrc Freight that would sign any contract. I've been in 5 Teamsters Locals 600 twice I started in Local 279 working for Transport Service when the Crowe family own it . 705 in Chicago 480 in Nashville Tennessee now Local 710 in Chicago. I I see is a bunch of lazy people who trucking to lazy to take a shower and use decent restroom. Blame Bill Zollars. Yellow was a bankrupt company. Big R was the best company on the road a well oiled machine. Yellow was so stupid that if they would of kept them separate Roadway paid all the bills. They starred Yrc logistics a Chinese trucking company and then bought USF GROUP . Them dumb asses voted a 15 percent paycut in 2009 to save Yellow and didn't pay our pension for 3 years and drivers was being cheat out 15,000 a year plus lost a week's vacation I voted no in 2014 and it didn't pass that piece of crap Hoffa and Tyson Johnson and Lindam Grisham and Melvin Miller
So all of a sudden the Gop now loves unions. The rich CEO's may have something to say
about that.
I don’t buy it either. Republicans are the biggest obstruction to unions
the GOP didnt open the border and let in all the millions of illegals who will be competing for these jobs in a few years.
Yeah, "all of a sudden" since Nixon.
@@seanwatts8342 Nixon the crook right
My dad was a Union Steward back in the day and he’s probably shaking his head in heaven at this con being pushed on good people
I was homeless, did drugs, went into prison, where I got to know God. He changed my life. Now I have a home, a wife and a lovely year old daughter (zoe), and a stream of income that gats me $47,000 weekly. Plus a new identity - a child of God, Hallelujah!!!🇺🇲❣️♥️❤️
Excuse me for real?,how is that
possible I have struggling
financially, how was that possible?
It is the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. A lot of folks in the US and abroad are getting so much from it, God has been good to my household Thank you Jesus
Thanks to Kate Elizabeth Becherer
And also, I always appreciate God for his kindness upon my life
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Kate Elizabeth Becherer) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her 😊 from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺
I have heard a lot of wonderful things about Kate Elizabeth Becherer on the news but didn't believe it until now. I'm definitely trying her out
How's yellow trucking doing
@shaneschampers7240 yellow is having a yard sale so to speak.
not doing fuckall!
He let yellow reddaway yrc go under all politcs
Yellow head going on, Problem was management, and the government bailed them out twice, and they still went the hell
Idk there was 88k trucking companies that went bankrupt last year. Surprised people only talk about 1 company that was on deaths door for over a decade
The worst driving job i ever had was as Teamsters..Did absolutely nothing for me
Then you worked for a bad company. That isn’t the fault of the IBT
@georgegonzalez8818 you worked for a bad company. Not sure how you blame the union for working for a bad employer.
You're not wrong@chrisschleiger6362
@MrHunt916 you're not wrong. It was a shit.company. but Teamsters negotiated contract
@@georgegonzalez8818 I guess you hated paying nothin for health insurance and wanted to get paid less? Hahahah
Proud member of the 631 Las Vegas NV I’m on pace to gross $120k this year on a 4 day work week
Taken for granted would be how the teamsters miss managed the central state's pension fund and tried screwing retired drivers like my father out of what he was owed after retiring being 100 percent vested.
Because some greedy individuals were most likely padding their own pockets with the money that never belonged to them. They even were trying to cut his monthly pension payments in half they didn't get away with that, luckily.
But it definitely took a toll stressing him out, wondering how he was going to pay for things to simply live out his life while he was fighting cancer. He has since passed on after a long battle with cancer, so he doesn't have to worry about it anymore, but i still had to see the toll that stress of thinking he was loosing everything that he worked so hard for being away from his family for so many years providing for us took on him.
I don't trust anything coming out of a union member's mouth, whatever.
From watching this video I wish he talk little bit about trucking instead of teamsters teamster this teamster that
He’s the president of the Teamsters. That’s what he was there to talk about.
He briefly mentioned what yellow management did to the company.
All I’m saying what about trucker this would have been a great moment for trucker 72.6 of all freight in this country is being move by us the trucker the ones that gives up so much with little to no respect so everybody can enjoy they life and yes I know what I signed up for but we need a real change not just for owner operator but also company drivers
I didnt hear anything good they're doing for truckers, what historic speech still waiting...
I'm waiting along with you 🤔😤
He just has a big mouth pie hole
@Daoffgridtrucker I guess we can hold our breath and hope for a miracle 😂that our politicians and governments care about us. It's all about them looking good on TV and paper.
Ok,what did he say they was going to do for truckers🤔
Nothing
Still trying to figure out what teamsters has actually done for anyone.
I'm a Teamster and I support Donald Trump I was in the teamsters of a lot of years
Trump is a union buster from way back. He also repeatedly cheated his contractors.
Then ur handicap
No one should be forced to join a union just to have a job.
Oh yeah true that and I agree with you but nobody should be forced to work for pennies or rice and peas either.. That one you don't seem to know about
@@wethepplwhorblackerthanblu6442 the solution to that is a strong economy and a free market which you will never get under a Democrat
@@wethepplwhorblackerthanblu6442 when Trump was President the economy was strong and Freight rates were high. Since Biden has been in office the economy has tanked and trucking has been virtually destroyed
@@paultrosclair1775ahaha he messed up the economy in 2020 yet you think dear leader is the answer to all problems.
@jbone9900 wow ! Could you possibly be more clueless?
2020 was the PANDEMIC! How stupid can you be ?
Communism is communism, don't care if it's called unions, or teamsters.
@@OssBank you would rather get paid nothing by companies that do billions in business then typical idiot
He is such a liar…he does nothing.i have seen more layoffs with him
30k dues paying teamsters off the roles. The teamsters can afford to lose all that $
IBT can’t control a companies management or mismanagement issues. Stop the BS
But all the fan boys say how great the insurance is that they have.
That’s the only thing good is insurance for now.guy is a lier n is making things so bad.his contract are shit.no union employees layed off..lie lie
Teamsters are a Huge Rip Off!!!!
If you teamsters dont like it keep voting democratic. See where it gets you.
No worries been doing it for years haven't bothered my bottom line .. its about Trump period nothing about truckers and not all of us truckers OTR DoNot Go for A draft dodger like trump.

Where’s yellow ?? Nuff said
Yellow did it to themselves 😮
The union did nothing for us but take our money
watch who the teamsters donate money to - that will be the truth. not the empty words of obrien the politician.
Got my cdl 2022 got accident in my personal vehicle for a fender bender that I was at fall for nobody will hire me after that they said I had to wait a year now that I went in my ear. They want me to take a refresher cord. I have to pay for that too. I ain’t got money like that. I really was trying to drive a truck. I’ve been waiting on that for a long time and now I can’t even do it.
He should be president
I guess folks dont remember which party actually writes and passes the union busting , corporate welfare packages that he was speaking about. It is ironic this speech was given at the RNC because they who he is calling out.
If you dont like the freight drought we are in, STOP VOTING DEMOCRAT !!!
Or how about you stop freaking out and keep working? This happens every 4 years. Welcome to trucking.
@kingloc6042 umm no... it doesn't. Not like this. If you think it's like this every 4 years,you are either ignorant or stupid.
@@kingloc6042 umm...no. Not like this if you think it is like this every 4 years, you are delusional.
@paultrosclair1775 Personally, I'm not struggling from a shortage of freight. I've got more work than I know what to do with. You are sick if you think a politician will solve your problems. Maybe run your business better? 🤷♀️
What did he say that the left was going to do for Truckers? I’ll wait….🤔
The left has sold American trucking to foreign interests.
What did he say that the right is going to do? I will wait
What has the right ? OTR not local either ? Ill wait !! A damm thing
@@JDogg210bro he ain’t say shit you right
Oh that's right Trump took tax breaks away for owner operators truckers
I watched his speech last night and he was awesome! So intense, truthful and compassionate. I hope all the truckers vote republican. ❤
This one will
All Blue
What for?
PROUD TEAMSTER OF LOCAL 848 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.....I was proud of this speech.
Jimmy Hoffa will ALWAYS be my President
So teamsters are hurt too?
I know many O/O are working for less per hour than minimum wage and ZERO benefits….
So what took him so long to endorse Trump?? The Teamsters need to apologize to all the conservative truck drivers who have been ignored for decades.
Thank you for the News.
Unions have pretty much outlived their time, but I would say this is a very important role. He’s playing for ALL truck drivers even though he’s mostly representing unions & I am very pleased that a Truck Driver representative is recognized at the RNC. I don’t know anything about him, but I would assume he would be a much better representative concerning trucking regulations than what we currently have.
It really was an amazing speech.
This is awesome!!!
Sean had a a great speach surprising well done
This guy didn't say what is going to be done for truck drivers. Just a bunch of empty words from him. Not impressed.
I loved this speech and I support truckers everywhere. I support unions and the rights of American workers. His speech didn’t do Trump any favors because trump doesn’t support unions.
GOD bless you President Sean O'BRIAN
Denver Safeway and albertson dc and stores are teamsters.
I watched his speech also and I felt as though he was selling the union's values moreso than talking about the trucking community as a whole. He has always sided with the Left, but most truckers side with the Right. That's why he said, "....the Teamsters are selling out....". Remember YELLOW was part of the Teamsters and had to shutdown because of Teamsters dues.
Funny how Texas and Florida red states want to remove water drinking rights for workers.
Pray for the Armour of Protection over President Trump in Jesus precious name
This isn't world of warcraft
@@chrisbafomb for a atheist it's not . We're in a Holy War

So what was the historic announcement
the fact that he's the first teamsters to talk at the RNC was a first In 121 years
They already endorsed Biden. WTF was he there? 🤷🏽♂️
@@MuthaTrucker that dude is in it for himself he doesn't care how about all the truck drivers he only cares about the ones that's paying dues and lining his pocket

I do not like unions, never have. I have some hope if they are finally willing to talk at the rnc. Still think there’s a lot wrong with unions.
Why my company closed the door it been happening with all presidents!!
He.s wasting his time at a republican convention..they could care Less about working class

Im supporting trump no matter what. trump 2024!!! FJB!!!!
Cult 🙄
Bout time they made sense
Make no mistake about it, this is a play to garner the votes of southern politicians and made it known that teamsters will support republicans if they support workers rights
Glad company drivers have a voice for them . Where is the owner op voice at
the guy had some good points. but when he demonized corporate america he looked like a fool. UPS drivers making a top wage of 46 bucks an hour is ridiculous. im sorry, but they are way overpaid compared to others with much higher skill sets. this guy obrien is in it for himself. the way he operates he will bankrupt companies just like he helped in sinking yellow freight. we can all pretend we should make 100 bucks an hour but its not reality. beware of what you want to hear and what reality is
Teamsters must be looking for another bail out on their pension. Hopefully the Republicans won't cave in
The IBT this year had a pole at their meetings to see who we wanted to support in the 2024 presidential election. Union 406 was in strong favor of trump
Yeah, because Trump is so pro union. lol he wants to be like Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan was pro union too.
Just so the ones who don’t know history I was being sarcastic.
I can appreciate him talking to the republicans and also he’s not a traitor for this speech. He just needs to understand who is ultimately on his side. Remember, Trump went to non union shops while Biden went and walked the picket lines at union shops.
I think it's safe to say at this point Biden's not in charge.
Not true Trump is pro union he has always made sure all of his jobs were union workers only
Show proof of Biden walking Union picket lines
@@gerrymchale8965 His mental decline is mostly in regards to speaking (currently), and he still chose who was going to be in his cabinet. If you can't feel a major difference from Obama's presidency, you aren't paying attention. It's not great, but frankly, if this is Biden a decade late, we probably should've had him as President 2008-2016 instead of Obama. Would've been alright for a dem. Who am I kidding, every president we've had this century blows. Biden and Trump are probably the best we've had despite the hostility.
Teamsters about to get embarrassed just like Carrier did.
Love it
trucking sucks it's a minimum wage job now.
Thank you for all you do on your channel🖤🚛
Empty rhetorics and false hope and promises.
That speech was really moving. Made me realize we are not alone in this, thank you
No of course not just racist folks
Finally a Teamster President that’s for the American workers.
Nah he is just for trump
I didn’t hear nothing about trucking. Muthatrucker you capping 🤷
They shouldn’t have him or any president so exposed. It should just be a vote by the people system with representatives who volunteer or are most elected by the people with their own proof.
Also we shouldn’t need lawyers just allow people to explain there situations and leave it up to the jury and judge and if they are thought to be unfair have up to 7 times to move on to the next team then people would do what’s right more.
They are in being told when to apologize. Watch it a few times and tell me im wrong.
The brotherhood took money out of my check for(insurance) from day 1of employment.didnt qualify for insurance the first 90 days.the union was voluntary in texas but i still got check deducted.didnt stay 90 days.300.00 to 400.00 a week in 2011.working for the oil industry just wasnt enough $$$$.crapy job

My peeps he thinking about that soft marshmallow candy 😂
Lmfao. Easter candy
You know the dems are doomed when the teamsters support the republican ticket
Talk talk talk
I didn't hear him say nothing about truck drivers
I doubt he was this tough in Yellow’s negotiations…thousands of people without a job and non union carriers unwilling to hire former union drivers
Peeps and props, culture thives
He gave one hell of a speech never thought that would ever happen God Bless The USA and this man
Wow love this
These corporations wil never help they just talking ish

Not all of us OTR idk about local or regional day cabs 😂
what did he says about truckers?
What a joke.

has anybody ever considered trump is at peace because he got rest and melania was a bad girl!
He said nothing about truckers! Wtf, I don’t trust none of them
I don't and we'll never ,you take care of your game .
Its about time truckers get some love
And where is YELLOW now? Hes talking a lot and saying absolutely nothing, he should level up and become a Washington politician, i dont trust a single word or promise he is blabbering about.
Isn't this the one that messed up the money
This is a big deal. Specifics in this context are not as relevant…. What is relevant is truck drivers will be heard in a Trump administration. Whether or not they win every argument, they are in the door. This matters.
That awesome but he closed down yellow freight and put 30,000 people out in the streets.
Are you stupid or just ignorant? The IBT had nothing to do with nor prevent the demise of YRC
This is what we need. Truckers need a govt. that is pro union
That is not republicans. This is all a scam
Surely they'll find it at the RNC 😂
