[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 101691, member: 2189"] My guess is the hot topic will be pension and insurance but UPS will be resistant to funnel more more into a leaky bucket that they really aren't getting any return on. Can't say as I blame them either. Pensions across the board are dying folks so it's time we all just face realities. Best thing IMO may be nothing but maintaining the pensions as they are but move towards 401k matching. The 12% UPS Freight is getting would be excellent IMO. As for more option days? I'd be surprised if you still have any at all as they may be one of the lambs to the slaughter if UPS does pony up for the pension. UPS has never liked what the options have become and way to many people abuse them with last minute calls and the ole" "put me down for [B]another[/B] option day" and as long as you never exceed your option day limits, they have little to stand on. I remember the day when 3 attendence infractions in a 90 day period started up the pen to paper cycle and personally we need that back in a very bad way and yes I to believe that. UPS saving the day will not come without a cost and I'm willing to bet it's a big one in their favor. [/QUOTE]
