[QUOTE="jetset, post: 367941, member: 5342"] I once replied to a post from someone who wanted to move to the UK , the only problem was the salary. When he told me what a driver in the US earns I was blown away. I therefore read this thread with amusement , my understanding may be wrong but I beleive that in the US UPS drivers earn way above the average wage for the industry, that the pension is managed by the union and the contributions of UPS employess subsidise other union members who don't work for UPS, that for this reason the union can't afford for the management of the pension fund to be handled by UPS even though benefits to UPS employess would be far greater, That any strike in the US impacts me and UPS staff throughout the world not just the US. That the people of Chicago work way harder than the rest of the US and for that reason should have greater benefits. If my understanding of the above in anyway is incorrect please correct me. BUT in my opinion Heffernan is spot on and well done for standing up its always so easy to just follow the masses. [/QUOTE]
