MRA (Market Rate Adjustment) Raise Exceptions

[PT Car Washer]

Starting UPS delivery driver work is still higher than Amazon delivery driver work.

Everyone thinks they have the hardest job in the world. Except me. I have the easiest job for how much I am paid.

So sunrise makes 24 a hour thats 36 a hour for anything over 5 hours. Im at 32.89. So hours 6 7 and 8 they are making more. Im glad people getting raises. But everyone should get something

Should your straight time rate be higher than their overtime rate?

 

[cachmeifucan]

I started in 1996 it was 8 a hour same work so i have little sympathy. Maybe just give everyone a bonus. They deserve more but so does everyone. If ups game me .10c per year that would be nice

My coworkers who got 18 years make just over 22. And still waiting for a combination job. How about offer more combination jobs to the pt employees that have been waiting a lifetime. Thats a step in the right direction. Give stock options offer something to people who built this company for decade.

It's worse, they still don't know what inflation is

Nice!

Nice for the union to collect more in dues considering they didn't get any bonus money.

They are doing this all over the country. So i blame hoffa. Didn't hoffa endorse the bums that are running against O'Brien and Campos.

Are they doing a market rate adjustment in any of the locals with candidates on Teamster power slate?

Of course you blame Hoffa He's the boogeyman to you guys.

I'm curious are you still going to blame hoffa for anything that goes wrong in the next couple years?

Also don't you guys negotiate your own national contract? How is it hoffas fault that you have language that allows UPS to do this?

 

[cachmeifucan]

Good question

 

[nWo]

I'm okay with the language allowing UPS to do this. But it would be preferred if we had better negotiated pay rates to begin with.

I haven't heard my local 396 H getting an MRA raise.

Props to UPS for doing this. It's a shame that the teamsters let pay rates get so poor to begin with.

Pretty sure UPS isn't doing this out of the goodness of their heart. Desperate for workers in the Hubs. Reminds me of the 1990's and Bill Clintons welfare to work program. Hired a lot of older people in their 40's. Even had a van go around and pick up people and bring them to work.

Sounds to me like someone opened up a big can of worms that will eventually bite them in the ass.

Local 705 piggybacks off the national contract. When the bar is set so low, there is only so much you can do.

This is BS....new off the street pre-loader starting at a higher wage then a new Full-time driver is an embarrassment to the union. Hey you want to implement some real MRA....have our top rate properly represent our area cost of living.
