Not my Union

[Non liberal]

Nope.

I make $160K per year, with a full pension and full medical, working 10.5 hours per day. That should be $185K by the end of the contract.

And you want me to vote no on this contract?

Sleepers?

Getting rid of 22.4 and forced sixth day were pretty large issues. Difficult to get them all in one contract.

I heard back in January that ups wanted to get rid of 22.4's, so I don't really count that as a win. The sixth day thing is a good win.

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Are we still going on about this contract? Let's get this vote out of the way and move on. I got my DOT coming up and can't risk the blood pressure spike. Need that 2 yr card.

Word of advice-----do not schedule the physical first thing in the morning after having had two cups of coffee at home. I did that once and "failed" on the first attempt and "passed" after they let me sit for a half hour or so and redid the blood pressure.

 

[Brownsocks]

I have a couple people leaning no in my building. Told them as long as they are basing it off of reasonable expectations and facts I respect their vote no matter how they vote

I agree 100% I have had similar conversations with 22.4 and preloaders.

I’m fairly certain that people on the operational level wanted to get rid of the 22.4. I’m not so certain that the executives and the bean counters originally wanted to. They’re always disconnected from reality when they think they can save money.

 

[Brown Down]

Is it safe to assume $160K is wages combined with benefit package?

Yes

All I heard was it was giving a lot of troubles to them. What level was the troubles, I don't know.

 

[I have NOT been lurking]

There was always options they were just ignored. And just like the flu most people got it and had no trouble getting over it. The biggest problem more people who went to get help.
It was funny when I got tested so I can turn in the paperwork and they basically told me hey sorry there’s nothing we can do for you you’ve got Covid. thanks Doc you’re as worthless as tits on a boar hog. It was mostly a campaign of fear and propaganda. It made billionaires multibillionaires.

We'll see how many people have myocardial problems probably by next contract

 

[Trucker Clock]

Is it safe to assume $160K is wages combined with benefit package?

Nope. Probably closer to $200K including benefits.

 

[Trucker Clock]

Sleepers?

Nope. Mileage with some delay time. A little over 600 miles per day. 9.5 hours drive time, plus a little over an hour per day "delay" time at time and a half.

 

[Commercial Inside Release]

@Swanson congrats! You have your life back. No more missing out. No more cramming 10 hours of work into a 5 hour shift. Now, when you are done with work, you actually want to do stuff. No more of that UPS post-work coma.

 

[What'dyabringmetoday???]

Nope. Probably closer to $200K including benefits.

Nice. Threw me off when you said 10.5 hours a day. That's good coin for sure.

 

[GameCockFan]

No, I had a part time job that I retired from after 20 years with $250 k in profit sharing, as well as a pension, and insurance comparable to what I get here. friend off, company lackey .

You should have stayed. Also, you're full of !

 

[GameCockFan]

I'm currently making $22 in a very expensive city to live in. PT, despite 6 days a week working 50 hours. So, yeah me going up to $22.25 is going to do what for me, exact

Luckily for you the new contract allows part timers to transfer. If you're going to be a life long part timer I suggest moving to somewhere you can afford to live.

And like most things here no one wants yours. Now go away you wanna be scab

There there now brothers lol

 

[HarryWarden]

Good luck brother and I’m not against people voting no at all. I think some people just have ridiculous expectations about what a vote no will get them.

I just don’t like how many people who say they’re voting no because “why not” and “you never vote no on the first offer

1. This isn’t the first offer
And
2. That’s dumb logic because if everyone did that then the union and the company would just never put forth the true contract on the first time

This is such insanely short sight stupid logic. But not surprising for you

What exactly do you think would happen if every part timer followed that logic?
