Early teamster pension local 639- while a Full time driver supervisor

[textat3]

I am eligible to collect my full time pension, with penalties, 25 years from Teamster Local 639. Can I go into management, full time, and then file for my early pension since I am no longer in the union. I am trying to collect my pension while working as a FT sup. Thanks.

I want to pad my pockets.

My early pension would only be about 5-6 k per month.

It sucks…

And that’s with penalties???

And that’s with penalties???

If I'm remembering correctly 639 has probably the best pension in the country.

 

[textat3]

yes…but making 120k a year as a ft driver, it ain’t much.

I guess. Holy crap!

No I am not. I work safe and that is it. I don’t know if they would take me. I would like to be a preload sup so I can take care of my lawn customers in the afternoons… I heard they get less than driver sups so I don’t know.

You realize 6k a month is 72k a year don’t you
Sounds like we’ve got another one that didn’t plan for retirement very well

You’ve had 25 years to plan for retirement

I could be wrong but I think there is language prohibiting what you want to do.

Indecisively helping.

Let me rephrase it.....

You could probably be a PT union preloader but I seriously don't think you could be any type of management.
Why would you want to be anyway?

639 has rules about the type of work you can do while collecting a pension, pretty sure that continuing to work for UPS in any capacity is a non-starter but you can give them a call and they'll tell you.

I asked my center manager this morning and he said I could…I am officially a driver supervisor. I am out on road in Bethesda, MD right now because rookie driver dropped a route. I have 135 stops left…this sucks….can I go back into the union?
