[QUOTE="nospinzone, post: 225102, member: 1335"] Danny and Van are receiving benefits from their 25-30 years of service to UPS, during which they were faithful Teamster members before 2004. Danny and Van and every other APWA supporter are the ones that have sat behind the wheel the past 25-30 years, away from their families doing Uncle Busters work. And when it was time for Danny, Van, and the countless other UPS'rs to retire on the pensions promised to them for their 25-30 years of service, where was the money? [B]Disappeared like a old fart in the wind![/B] Now explain how they are benefitting from other Teamsters hard work??? Seems to me they would have been better off with another union, like the Machinist. I don't deny the good work that the Teamsters did in the early formative years of the labor movement, and I commend them for that. However, the Teamsters stopped putting my best interest first once they agreed to the contract in 98. And at this time of opportunity to install a new CBA, I and others will withdraw our support of our current CBA who we believe is failing us, and support the better alternative which is our legal right protected by the NLRA. So you believe that the wiser way to prepare for the cost of living increases is to choose the $2800 over the $7000? You totally lost me there. Under the APWA plan, the 25-30 year employee would get the pension promised to him by the Teamster plan he has been contributing his/her money to for the past 25-30years. As I said above, money that the IBT has pissed away,,,,,, [I]is pissed away[/I]. APWA benefits start paying vested benefits at five, ten, fifteen.... years of service, which would be in addition to any vested benefits promised by Teamster plans. [/QUOTE]
