[QUOTE="finaddict, post: 3032500, member: 6415"] I read the first three pages and then jumped to the last. I've got 29 years in the game. #1, you are labor. Simple labor. If you get along with your customers and they think you are awesome, fantastic. You are what used to make this company great. The Teamsters managed our retirement just as well as Social Security managed "your" retirement account. As a feeder driver my total compensation 2016 was $142,000. Great pay, great benefits, :censored:ty pension, but at least I have one. Not the company's fault but the unions. How much public support will we get for another "Unfair labor practices" strike? We lost a :censored:load of business that no longer had confidence in us in '97. A lot never came back. Keep what we have, protect our interests by limiting/stopping subcontracting. Take care of the PT'ers, preserve our Health care and do not extend progression. A cost of living allowance or fair wage progression will keep (most) everyone happy and keep us secure for another 4-6 years. You can buy stock at a 10% discount so you've already got a little jingle down the road plus quarterly dividends. Think for yourself and your future, we need the younger teamster's to carry our asses thru our Ponzy scheme of a pension. [/QUOTE]
