[QUOTE="Seymour Packages, post: 4796191, member: 79252"] Miserable? My father makes more retired than some people make sweating all month. We didn't want for anything growing up. The union benefits and above average salary the IBT negotiated gave my brothers and I a very good life. Now I am affording that same life to my children. With zero college debt. A CDL that my local helped me to obtain for free. I pay, on average, $0 and 0 cents for health insurance. This monkey will retire in 12 years, God willing, with no debt with my children's college savings plans fully funded. Great parenting, if you ask me. With that said, UPS will always look out for UPS. Dishonesty is the culture. Intimidation is the culture. Scumbaggery is the culture. Hence the need for union protection. As I have stated before, nothing we enjoy as UPS employees is by the grace of UPS. Ask your management team about their pension, benefits, protections against intimidation, or production goals. I'll wait for you. Life is great at UPS because of the union. Period. All of us have a chance at a middle class life, we can't be harassed without consequence or fired at will. But thanks for your input. [/QUOTE]
