[QUOTE="HOTELDUNORD, post: 1203140, member: 35938"] If the contract is ratified as is you will be under a 4 year progression, since you started after 7/31. You will get a retro check for ALL hours worked but not until the contract is done. Despite all the talk about health care nearly all the drivers at my center have other concerns about the new contract. Among them is the continual increase in time it takes to get to full scale. If this trend continues on the next contract we will be looking at 5 or even more years to get to top rate. Also in regards to your retro check many workers have started doing the math to guesstimate their back pay. The union has been playing on this to get members to vote yes on the contract. If we don't have a contract for a year you will still get your back pay! We all need to understand that we are not in it for the start haul but for what will be 30+ years for most of us. We need to take a deep breath and look hard at what going on. Ours is a deceptively difficult job and we earn every penny. No sense in selling out in the short term. [/QUOTE]
