Has anyone else heard that package handlers will star to make 15/hr after august?
here we go...strap on your seatbelts, grab the beer and popcorn..going to be an interesting week on brown cafe!!
I wish!! Never will happen with this union.
Like make PT package handlers, I make over $15/hour. But I've been here quite awhile. If you don't like it, blame your co-workers for not voting - not the union.
I heard new employees will be starting around 11/hr with the new contract.

Under the TA unskilled new pter's is $10/hr, skilled new pter's is $11/hr. No raise until you have been here a year.
I would be curious to hear from some of the guys/gals that have been at UPS 20+ years:
What was the starting wage when you started?
What year did you start?
Factor in inflation, and I bet it's around 15 dollars and hour.
I've actually heard the same a few times.I would be curious to hear from some of the guys/gals that have been at UPS 20+ years:

I could be wrong, but from what I recall someone telling me, pre-1980's pters had highers wages at the end of progression than what we have now, and then around 1981 they instituted a two-tier system. DISCLAIMER...THIS IS WHAT I REMEMBER BEING TOLD BY SOMEONE, NOT SAYING IT IS TRUE. If I remember what I was told correctly in 1981 starting wage was changed to 8 or 8.50 an hour.
And that's partly what kills me too. Some FT employees saying they stared at 8.50. Too bad that 8.50 an hour in 1980 is worth about 20dollars an hour today.
