Teamsters have no problem taking your money
The county residents, if they had any sense at all, need to reach out to the county and squelch this. Perhaps they need to trim the numbers of these prospective truck drivers.
There should be NO public employee unions, NONE. They are simply means to re-direct money to the elected officials who bargain with them.
The next Bankruptcy will be real bad for these folks if they do this.

The Teamsters just need a good slogan, like “Hope and Change”.
Come on, public employees of San Bernardino County, YOU KNOW THE FINANCES! There's nothing left. You've taken EVERYTHING. There's no money for raises, there's no money to pay back CalPERS for their loses in the stock market back in the 2000’s, there's nothing.
All that union representation will net you is money out of your paycheck and into the hands of Teamsters. That's it. And any ‘strong’ negotiations will just tip the county into bankruptcy and after Stockton, that will mean putting your retirements on the table SIDE BY SIDE with all other claimants for money.
Go ahead, make a suicide pact, the Teamsters will laugh even harder taking your money straight to the Democrats.
