[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5660156, member: 58386"] Contractors had better hope that their box hogs don't take the time to actually read the new contract proposal. Part timers go to 21 an hour immediately Longer term PT's go to 23.50 . Currently UPS has 22,000 open positions with 7500 new full time positions soon to be created. You can't help but wonder if at least part of the UPS strategy with these big pay increases was to put contractors in a position where they simply cannot compete for dependable highly productive labor. The kind you simply have got to have in this business. Sure, in sparsely populated, high mileage, low economic activity areas contractors will find some people but many of those areas are places where contractors barely survive and many don't. This UPS/IBT deal doesn't help FDX....It hurts it. [/QUOTE]
