[QUOTE="Its_a_me, post: 5545097, member: 93115"] If the union wants to organize Amazon, then UPS has to move to a starting wage of greater than $19 an hour (Amazon's current rate)--and the closer to $19 the worse your chances are. It doesn't matter if benefits are better. You are not going to get any traction as long as your crown jewel makes less per hour to start than the non-unionized facility. On a practical side, if the negotiated rate is too low the company will have to raise rates to get anyone just like last contract. This is yet another management technique to break a union as workers in one area can point and say the union doesn't represent me since worker in area X makes 3.50 an hour more than I do. [/QUOTE]
