		 UPS made $1.5 billion more in 2017 than the year before. Brown says it will cash in even more in 2018, predicting profits of up to $6.5 billion. 
 
UPS stock prices are up by 20 percent over the last year.  Package revenue is up to $65.9 billion. UPS Freight added another $3 billion in revenue, a 10% improvement. 
 
As icing on the cake, UPS is expected to cash in over $1 billion in corporate tax cuts. 
 
But at the negotiating table, UPS is trying to soak the 260,000 Teamsters at UPS and UPS Freight. 
 
The company is demanding givebacks, including a lower rate of pay for package drivers on residential routes, part-time package drivers for weekend deliveries, increased subcontracting, a reduction in guaranteed weekly hours for part-timers and many other concessions. 
 
I am not surprised
