[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1139677, member: 43436"] [b]Re: For Part Timers Only: If you are only here for the benefits...You've got to vote[/b] The USPS isn't much of a competitor to us - FedEx Ground is. And FedEx has a 20% profit margin on its Ground division. With shippers beginning to bulk at increased rates -- why do you think SurePost has exploded -- it's naive to believe that UPS can keep hiking its rates up as much as they have been, and keep "getting away" with it. Especially if FedEx doesn't follow suit. You have to remember that UPS's profit is accumulated by multiple employee groups -- logistics, supply chain, international ... we got our share this contract, no doubt. I think the negotiated raise is more than fair for FT (who will be earning between $80K-$100K in just five years). I think the new benefits are fair. What I have a problem with is the lack of a catch up raise for PT. [/QUOTE]
