[QUOTE="soberups, post: 669446, member: 14668"] When I got hired as a part-timer 23 years ago, the starting wage was $9.50 per hour with benefits after 30 days of seniority. The minimum wage at that time was $3.25 per hour, so a new hire made 3x the minimum [I]the day he started.[/I] Today, the starting wage has [I]decreased[/I] to $8.50 per hour, with benefits unavailable for an entire [I]year[/I]. The minimum wage here is now $8.25. 2/3 of UPS's workforce is part time, and even the ones with several years of service arent making 3 times the minimum. And they never will. Adjusted for inflation, the wages and benefits of the majority of UPS's workforce are at an [I][B]all time low[/B].[/I] Concessions? We have been making them for the last 20 years. [/QUOTE]
