[QUOTE="Cole, post: 249525, member: 9507"] First, we have not seen any specifics that can be completley varified at this time, once we do we get give a better evaluation. A rule of thumb is never vote the first offer in, as we have seen in the past, their "last best offer" is a bluff, and they have a better deal behind it. As far as renegotiating, if the Union is saying to accept the offer, (1) it will pass, (2) they would go back and change a little bit of the language and send it for a vote. The cost to the company on buying out of CS is enormous, but will pay for itself if they don't have to have alot of 62 yr olds delivering pkgs. Question every word that is changed, and pay very close attention as the word "may" etc... can really water down the language. Also pay very careful attention to your supplements as there has been no mention of the Supplements, and as we know they can strip away everything accept your wages from the National. As Steve Irwin used to say, "Danger, danger, danger"! Seriousley we have to pay close attention to any and all changes, and inform others how it effects them etc... Honestly I think we are better off, particularly weaker local areas, to have at least our wages negotiated on a national level, rather than local. Some areas would get far less otherwise! [/QUOTE]
