[QUOTE="Inthegame, post: 997540, member: 37112"] 50%??? Dues are based on wage rates. If under $11, it's 2X the rate., if over $11, it's 2.5X. That isn't close to 50%. And the reason full timers have the benefits they enjoy is because they're involved. Do you work at a UPS facility? Part timers [U][I]have[/I][/U] dedicated stewards in their operations. They also have business agents that "specifically" represent their interest even if they don't attend meetings (which they don't). The point here is being a union member requires a little effort, like coming out to express your views to those agents/stewards. Full timers get what the get because they are involved. Remember UPS works the %$#* out of full timers too, so don't use excuses. What retirees do in retirement is irrelevant to part time wages. [/QUOTE]
