[QUOTE="some1else, post: 5337816, member: 18280"] Ups had a 5.9% rate and 1% fuel surcharge increase for 2022. Our cola is Just over 2%. Simple contractual solution would be our negotiated raises plus rate increases. The increase in costs ups faces running a company and us running a household are not an exact match but similar and better than the cooked official numbers. I’d challenge anyone that has been at top rate 5, 10, 15 plus years to go back and look at your rent/mortgage, groceries, gas, car payment etc. factor it in terms of how many hours then vs now. We are being paid a lot less. For example the apartment I had when I hit top rate was 799 a month and I was at 25$. Now the same apartment would be 1500$. So I would need to work an extra 7hours each month to afford the same apartment. Tl:dr we are making a lot less now than 10 or 15 years ago. [/QUOTE]
