[QUOTE="sawman, post: 55427"] UPS79, In years prior to 1999 the S&P made record earnings, some years as high as 21 to 22%. As far as my retirment, I was just esimating the taxes. Even at 20%, I would only get $1185.00 a month. Not much for 43 years of service, and that's 20 years from now 2025. What will the cost of living be then? The parttime pension of $55.00 is a UPS pension. But, regardless they are still getting $5.00 more than a full timer. My point on that matter is, look how bad the teamster/Central States pension is. Where have you ever heard of a parttime employee getting a larger pension than a full timer. These are a few reasons, why UPSers are leaving the teamsters and looking elsewhere. Keeping in mind that this didn"t happen over night, it was after many battles with the CS fund and the Teamsters. WHich by the way CS was started by the Teamsters and CS and the TEamsters have an Equal number of members on the CS board. So the teamster union is as responsable for the cuts as CS. [/QUOTE]
