[QUOTE="finaddict, post: 252686, member: 6415"] The offer is pitiful. Of course the union got decent raises for FT since they get 2 1/2 times our hourly rate! The progression increase is unacceptable. It cost alot to bail out central states but to screw the rest of the empoyees while the union is the one really reaping the benifits really stinks. What will happen is we will refuse the offer, come to a strike authorization, loose massive volume, maybe strike and loose thousands of dollars per employee in lost wages for another offer that may recoup half of what we would have made while working. We loose either way. Thanks teamsters. I'm making $28.77 and hour. I would have accepted any contract offering a dime more while keeping benifits, progression and health/welfare the same while giving the part-timers a pay raise. Nope. Won't happen. Teamsters need us FT to make more so they make more. Not enough PT in the union and at a pitifull wage why the hell would they be? Who wins? Teamsters and UPS. Not us. [/QUOTE]
