[QUOTE="Steward773, post: 259112, member: 12275"] 43, heck I agree that it's not the company's fault about the condition of m/e pensions. They were giving the money, it's from that point on that things went sour. You don't know what might happen in the future that may affect our pensions. That is why I feel that they should let us have that money so we can control our own future. Then if you hit retirement age and can't afford it you can't blame anyone but yourself. I'm a realist, I understand that we can't keep getting huge raises every year. But please don't chip away at all the other language in the contract, it is a 2 way street. Always keep in the back of your mind that this company makes record profits every year. At what point can you say that corporate greed has taken over? I understand that the company has to look out for future interest, but at the expence of the workers who maintain it's business. I look around in my building and there are packages flowing out of the doors! At peak we have to load trucks in the middle isles. Every year stop counts keep rising and we hire more than are retiring. So the company can say that we are losing business, but all the evidence leads me to believe that it's not true. As for me, shoot I still wear clothes back from high school :laugh:. I have a wife and kids, small house in a quiet neighborhood. And I try to save as much money as possible. One piece of advise I give to new drivers is to do that because you can't rely on retiring and living off your pension(if you even have one). I just want to be healthy when I retire so I can enjoy what years I have left:thumbup1:. [/QUOTE]
