“Reagan was hated by union leadership”

Then how did he get their official endorsement in 1980 and 1984?

I was not referring to the Teamster's in particular but to labor as a whole. Reagan got the endorsement of the Teamster's Union but few other union endorsements. Despite once being a union official, Reagan was not liked by the Labor movement.
