[QUOTE="Cole, post: 204810, member: 9507"] Jon, Now that my friend is plain ridiculous. How has anyone been "harsh" to non-ups retirees" The APWA's beef has not been with anyone other than those who mismanaged the CS funds to that point that we [b]can't[/b] retire until 65, and with a minimal pension on top of that, for many yrs of hard work and dedication, to both our employer and the Teamsters! To try and act like this is an attack on all non-UPSers is totally unfounded, and without merit. The APWA was started because of that fact. I am glad anyone got out and got a pension, but the fact that we can't because of a very poor setup, that our dues pays for, says to me and I am sure others that the [b]Teamsters[/b] are/were the one's who were/are harsh to all those in CS. The members for yrs. have asked for trustees accountable to them, not appointees, and it was those Teamster appointees that blundered ours while many Teamster officials get multiple pensions. Either way this about getting a real pension as we should have under our current CBA, but they dropped the ball on us, and the APWA is trying to recover the fumble on about the 50 yard line. As far as Tom Coleman, what need would the APWA have with him after the election process? Personally I don't like him being involved, but my understanding is he is retained until the election is over ;) Bottom line the Teamsters could have done things the right way and this wouldn't be an issue, so the blame is not UPSers against anyone other than those who mismanaged/stole our pensions! Good day sir! [/QUOTE]
