[QUOTE="sortaisle, post: 1140820, member: 17605"] There are economic realities and there are realities. They sometimes don't coincide. UPS made a profit on our backs...true. This contract is less than the last contract...I'll give that a qualified true. Some are better...some are worse. These are economic realities. UPS must be able to compete with FedEx and all the LTL carriers and local delivery companies. They can't compete when they have to raise shipping to pay for raises. This is a reality. This is a case where the two don't meet. Now...me still being pt, I don't like the fact that I'd have to pay a deductible. I like my BCBS benes. Healthcare is going up every year though which I understand. I also understand that I'm part time. This is the price I pay for being an uneducated labor force individual. Can UPS afford to keep things the same...economics say yes....reality says no. I'm personally voting no...but for UPS to stay competitive, they have to do something. Is a part timer suppose to make a living wage? Be realistic. [/QUOTE]
