[QUOTE="dr.kick, post: 153265"] Would you rather have a pension at 55 after working 25 years that pays $2000/month or a pension that pays $3000/month after a minimum of 30 years and a retirement at 65. I would suggest that UPS(usa) employees do some calculating and work out a very long term contract(10-15) years with buyout priveleges for top rate ft and pt employees and reduced pension amounts if wanting to collect by 50 or 55. Take a 5% paycut and decrease the amount of unpaid time UPS deducts to 30 min with paid breaks of 2x15 minutes per day and double time after 10 hours. No code 5 allowance unless pt and working under 5 hours. Goodluck! The strike in 2008 will last long enough so all won't get strike pay thanks to the last minute negotionations that will happen. Then you will be deducted dues when you get forced back to work. Figure out, strike pay is only good if you collect but if you don't I guarantee that it goes into General Revenue and is spent.
