[QUOTE="sawdusttv, post: 176244, member: 7476"] In 97 the company was ready to offer the full- timers a pension. The union said that was a strike issue and would not let the member vote on the issue. Rocky, on another note, the majority of employees that I know do have 401k savings, and we understand that you are a youngster, but many thousands of us do not have the luxury of having 20 or 25 years left to recoup the funds that were taken from use. These funds were not only promised to us, UPS paid these funds on our behalf and every document that we have received from the company over the years has included these contributions as part of our yearly pay, thus, by cuttting our pensions they are cutting our earned wages. This is just one of the reasons that UPSers are furious about the cuts. The APWA is born out of this fury, and the Teamsters have no one to blame but themselves. Brett, Everyone is getting tired of the Teamsters games, of which you enjoy playing on here. With you grammer games and word definition games that are meant to devert the attention away from matters at hand. Enough of your games. BOTTOM LINE!!! Our defined contributed benefits have been taken from us by the Teamsters Union, and we the UPS employees will not stand for it any longer, and we are doing something about it "ROCKY" The APWA is the UPS employees taking matters into our own hands, no crying no whinning. We are taking action, and after all the special teamsters craft meetings being held this weekend, it looks like the Teamsters are taking us seriously now. [/QUOTE]
