[QUOTE="bobs barricade tester, post: 284986, member: 13471"] by looking at just the financial part I don't think it is a good contract, here is why, 1. we lose the drop&hook point system, which I like, I make almost $300 a week with it 2. we lose the 401k match, which is about $2800 a year for me figuire it out over 25 years gaining intrest. 3. I am never delayed, I work the dock, every driver that comes to the hub has that option 4. (I am not 100% on this) but it was said on another UPS forum that roaddriver vacation pay will be paid at 8 hours and not an average daily pay as it is now. $70k a year 4 weeks vacation = $1800 lost total lost over a year about $20,000 (not including intrest from the 401k match) The drop and hook point scale will be replaced by paid actual time spent, to make the same amount of money I will have to spend about 14 hours a week dropping and hooking. I would much rather be in the cab with the wheels turning becuase that is where the most money/hr is made. I also understand that some people will benefit from this contract especially those who are delayed everyday. And there are runs that do triple turns which will lose more than me. What I don't understand is why p&d gets gains across the board and does not lose anything. [/QUOTE]
