[QUOTE="turdburglar, post: 1133706, member: 41722"] Hello everyone. A lot of people are talking about the tentative agreement on this forum, and I think it is an insult, especially to part-timers (what's new?) One of the biggest things is that part-timers in the building where I work who have been busting their asses for 4 plus years are going to have to wait an additional year to reach top rate once they became drivers (if they even become drivers in the near future at all). That is a lot of money. I know that I am going to vote no on this contract. A lot of people in the building where I work look to me for information on union business, the grievance process, and the contract, and I like to think that they assign more value to what I say than they do to most people in the building. Seeing as how I am influential for the part-timers in my building, I want to know exactly what is happening to the healthcare for this contract. I keep hearing something about a Teamster health plan that is taking effect in place of the company health plan. Is this true, and will it affect everyone? If not, who will it affect? Finally, what are the negatives about a Teamster health plan? I am hoping that the information that I gain will allow me to sway the part-timers' opinion against the contract (because everyone knows that most full-timers will pass this contract that screws the part-timers just like the previous contracts). Thanks in advance for any responses. [/QUOTE]
