[QUOTE="Ex-, post: 865572, member: 36579"] Again, up to you what you believe and what you don't......when I started towards the end of my senior year of HS I had just slipped in under the old contract, which was well over 12 bucks an hour. Who knows, maybe it was different for different parts of the country at that time, I am just telling you what *I* made and I really don't see how I would benefit saying I made a few bucks more just to enliven this story. People who came in just after me, and there were tons of them, started at 9 bucks and they weren't happy about it one bit as they were doing the exact same work as guys who were making 12.....of course the guys who were grandfathered in and were already making the 12+ didn't get a cut, we stayed where we were at and by '85 and '87, etc, it had gone up to about 15 or so; the 9 dollar guys only gained like 50 cents a year and were making much less. Again, thank your local Teamsters office for this. [/QUOTE]
