The only reason full-timers have the benefits they enjoy is because of the part-timers losing 50% of their compensation to the union which in turn supports the full-timers.....ft rides on the pt backs.......perhaps one day the pt people will wake up...

Go to union meetings. You guys could dictate your wages if only you'd participate.

Totally agree. I have seen plenty of UPS retirees in my building still working collecting SS, Pension and wage. Greed on both sides. Part-timer should have more of a say in their wages. There should be a steward dedicated to partimers or a partimer union delegate that specifically represents the interest of part timers(even if they fail to attend union meetings)

Sometimes people forget that we live in a capitalist society. Which means that a group people capitalize wealth from others. Money/resources are finite. So if someone has a good wage, that means another person somewhere in the group HAS to have the low wage. Just because a company is profitable doesn't mean that everyone in the company is entitled to a good wage or benefits..... Western society just doesn't work that way
