[QUOTE="scratch, post: 106514, member: 1674"] I am 48, started in '75 PT at age 17, went FT in '84, 31 years in this October. Yes, I worked many of my early years hearing 25 and 30 years and you can retire. Be nice to retire now, but I actually like to work and have a few good years left in me. I realize that a Pension is only supplemental income, but what really gets my goat is that you have all different kinds of Pension Plans that UPSers are in all overthis country.UPS gives the same amount of money for each employee to these Plans. Mine is the bottom of the barrel, $2550.00 a month from Central States at age 62 if you are married. A mechanic in the IAM gets up to $9860.00 a month. That's a hell of a lot of difference to me. I don't think that the APWA would help me much in my situation, but I get sick of the IBT and its Pension Funds screwing over UPS employees to make up for their shortcomings from other companies lack of contributions or the Teamsters poor job of organizing new members.
