Cheating the system

promoted to mediocrity
I was always envious of the nice houses, nice cars and vacations the BAs had. I guess they do work harder or at least make more money and perks. :wink2:
Of course, that is your money and none of my business.

That shade of green does not become you.

I make about $8K a year more than my BA.

In my local (162) no officer can be paid over 20% more than the highest negotiated wage in the local.

The Secretary-Treasurer of my local was a driver for about 26 years, and retired 15 yrs ago to work for the union. His yearly wage is only slightly more than he would be making if he were still a UPS driver with his level of seniority, but he gets fewer weeks of vacation per year and his health plan is slightly inferior.

He could have retired long ago but he is very devoted to his job.
