[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 59405"] I find it amazing the few active APWA self appointed cheerleaders on this forum continue to use such terms as thick, lazy, etc to describe anyone who dares to question anything they mispell. Frankly, it confirms the naive and unqualified nature of those supposedly here to [I]save us[/I]. Luckily, I believe the APWA is more competent than most of those that speak for it hear. However, it wouldn't take a total revolution of throwing the Teamsters out to fix our pension problems. It [B]would[/B] take a significant participation of the UPS Teamster members to do that. So we are doomed as that is unlikely to ever happen. The Health and Welfare section of the Pension would be even easier as the only reason UPS retirees are getting screwed there is because of the wording in the contract regarding "equal to" the CSPF H&W that allows UPS the loophole of screwing it's own retirees. A simple negotiated wording change there to get it back to it's original intent would fix that. That will be a major contractual tussle as UPS as they have saved a ton of money since they cut our retirees benefits through this loophole and they won't be anxious to restore our retiree benefits to the level it was several years ago voluntarily.
