[QUOTE="705red, post: 229957, member: 5229"] Mac theres alot of blame to go around for the cs pension downfall, from ups management, the teamsters, the financial firms and even us upsers! If upsers became more active in union activities, meetings, picnics, organizing drives, crap even filing grievances, but if we stood up as a whole throughout the country to let our voices be heard from day one instead of sitting back and doing nothing until now that we are pissed off maybe none of this would have happened, just maybe! As to us all taking it on the chin its quite possible! Say ups has put 10 billion aside for this contract, and cs costs 6 billion that leaves us with 4 billion for raises,medical benefits, dental vision, etc. Now most of us dont want our medical benefits to get any worse, so we would like to keep those, so we will trade a little pay raise for that, now lets not forget that we also need to take a stand for the p-timers and raise that starting pay rate above the poverty level its at now, so in the long run, i believ that the friend-timers will be lucky to get about $2 an hour raise if even that over a 5 to 6 year span! No formula used to get these numbers just a little quick math on a piece of paper( that i found after the negoiating commitee left the room)LOL. [/QUOTE]
