[QUOTE="Brown Dog, post: 255709, member: 12109"] No pension is secure except maybe for the remainder of this contract. But our pension has gotten weaker for the last 2 contracts and this will be the 3rd. Not even a cost of living increase, and after you retire, there's no COLA. So from the time you retire on your fixed pension it continually gets eaten up by inflation, that's why it's so importent to have a good starting pension, Ours hasn't changed in what 11years? and how about the cost of insurance for retirees, 50$ per person,(retiree and spouse) Word is, that could jump to 150$. I'll bet UPS doesn't bring that up until after the contract is ratified. Just like that 150lbs limit that came in AFTER a contract was ratified. Sometimes you have to fight for what's fair- and this contract does NOT seem fair to me-- just because I already make a good wage, I'm suppose to accept any crumbs they throw our way. WE have earned our good wage and we have earned an increase in our pension, especially with 200% increase in health care cost for retirees. 4 BILLION PROFIT last year for UPS --How about a cost of living increase in our pension? Do you think anyone in UPS or your union will be getting a pension of less than 50% of their yearly wages? OF COURSE NOT and we pay for our union reps pension, maybe they could actually improve ours, Thank you very much!:mad: [/QUOTE]
