[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 1077512, member: 12570"] From what I have read on this forum 1000 hours seems awfully low. I used 1800 as an example---I believe that is what the New England Pension Fund has. I believe that they also have a sliding scale for partial pension credit based on hours worked between 1000 and 1800. Raising it to 1800 would discourage the use of "dead days"---having the sliding scale would give the employee the option. We don't receive pension contributions for dead days. I have 23 years in with 7 more to go. I have not taken a dead day since my ex and I separated in 1996. Yes, there are mornings that I wake up and simply don't want to go in, but I get dressed and go in because that is what we are supposed to do. I know that I will have no problem making it to retirement. As for your question----it doesn't matter how I answer it as you have already formed your opinion. [/QUOTE]
