[QUOTE="705red, post: 253127, member: 5229"] Lifer im all for looking long term. I would sacrafice my hourly raises to invest it into my retirement pension for this contract, similiar to what the iam mechanics did to get their pensions to what they are now. However you cannot believe that ups is looking long term when in this contract they leave the starting p-time wage at $8.50. While they do go up after 3 quarters of a year(90 day) to a whopping $10.50 an hour they receive no medical for a whole year. Ups will spend after 90 days an additional roughly $40 a week in wages for $200 a month xs 9 months = $1800 in wages for a 1st year ups p-timer. Now they save estimated $700 a month in medival for the same employee that they would have received after the 1st 40 days. $700 xs 10 months = $7000 now minus the wage increae $1800 ups now saves $5200 a year for every new hire p-timer hired. We need to take better care of the p-timer or this company will suffer in their long term goals. You will not get good quality p-timers with this pay and benefit package! [/QUOTE]
