[QUOTE="stephenopolus, post: 841736, member: 35074"] WOW! According to the letter I received the other day, my pension is going to be around $1500/month in exchange for my 25 years of service. News like this places bright light on the fact that the International Brotherhood of Teamsters is not a real union. It is a conglomeration of smaller, disconnected, unions. We call them locals, but if they are allowed to operate autonomously (they are to a large degree) they are unions in and of themselves. The international is just a corporate style management layer on top them. Another bureaucracy we have to pay for. This fact is why we can not build solidarity and it is the biggest criticism we receive from skill and trade unions. But kudos on figuring out how to get 4-5k out of ups :-) [/QUOTE]
