[QUOTE="newfups, post: 1180368, member: 46319"] In regard to the OP about the 40 year employee sticking around due to having a 7 y.o. dependent, did anyone else hear this? Back at the meeting at our local pre-vote, the one where they "explained" how "good" the tentative agreement was, it was brought up that if you retired prior to 1/1/2014, you would continue your heath benefits under the UPS plan. ONE of the perks of doing that was that under UPS, dependents ARE COVERED EVEN IN RETIREMENT. They went on to explain that in the new Teamcare plan, retiree dependents would NOT be covered upon retirement. This is actually very pertinent to my situation, so after the meeting I approached the officers to make sure that I was understanding what they were saying correctly, which they repeated and said I did understand correctly. For those of us that started our families later than the norm, this is a HUGE considerstion if we have the time time in and can retire prior to 1/1/2014. Could this be one of the many details that vary by region, I wonder? If I were the subject of the OP, I would definitely want a clarification. [/QUOTE]
