[QUOTE="Inthegame, post: 973372, member: 37112"] Now you have me questioning your numbers. Where did you come up with $133,000? The 100 million abatement or loss as you claim, divided by 42,000 UPS Teamsters equals less than $2500 each, an amount far less than the wage increase the Teamsters secured (see previous post). If you're suggesting UPS would have paid 6 billion as a bonus to all CS participants, you know a different company than I do. Had UPS left the CS plan in '97 how healthy would that plan have been for many more Teamsters than the minority of UPS participants? The withdrawal liability issue is contentious although in many cases other failed companies couldn't compete with UPS's expansions into non common carrier operations and became delinquent. "Could have been" is a game you'll have to play alone. With your logic the Teamsters should roll over for any offer UPS proposes because it could affect future employment. In any case, I don't believe anyone buckled or blinked, they just negotiated a settlement that could and should have been reached sooner. [/QUOTE]
