[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 770206, member: 12570"] $30/hr plus benefits has put two kids through college, a roof over their heads, braces on his teeth and hearing aids in his ears, a 30 day trip to Europe for her, along with 2 years of private school and a brand new car, etc, etc. $30/hr plus benefits will ensure that they will not have to take care of me when I am no longer able to take care of myself. $30/hr where I live is living high on the hog. From what I have read this strike would not be about money. It would be about all of the contract violations. This is where I have a disconnect as we simply don't have them here, at least not to the degree that has been discussed on this forum. I am home by 6:30 every night and, yes, I take my full lunch and break. I have absolutely no reason to go on strike and, if you were to mention this to my co-workers, I would dare say that none of them have any reason that they would want to go on strike. This is not to say that everything is rosy but things are not that bad in my center. [/QUOTE]
