[QUOTE="HEFFERNAN, post: 1154236, member: 11315"] Honestly, I have no idea. When I was hired in 1995, they took us around the hub showing us how hard everybody works and kept telling us this isn't for everybody. The pay was ok, but the initiation fees every week sucked. Back then, I also got college reimbursement so that made up for it. Pay hasn't risen much, no more cash for college but the only way to the top of ladder is to step on and go for it. Not many careers with benefits without a college education. Every contract, UPS seems to keep adding rungs to that ladder. It's been 18 1/2 years and eventhough I'm getting top rate, I feel I'm still only half way up that ladder. To me the top of the ladder is retirement with a 30 year pension, not some arbitrary number on my pay rate. Regardless, seniority heals all your pain ;) [/QUOTE]
