[QUOTE="PT Stewie, post: 1128855, member: 12889"] I will make $22.00 + per hour PT in August and close to $26.00 at the end with this contract "[B]if ratified[/B]" My concerns and the concerns for all should be how will the health care go? I know UPS put up the dollars to make the central states plan more like the company plans that about 100K of us enjoy now.From what I read from some posters as administrators central states has some problems ,although it sure beats the $790.00 per month premium my full time job offers for family health care.I work part time for the benefits and it enables me to put much of what I earn in the Teamsters 401K and stock purchasing.The part time job @ UPS helped me through some tough times ,but I always looked at it as a [B]part time job [/B]not a primary way of earning a living.In my mind it is an excellent vehicle to get somewhere else whether it be extra money for retirement,better food on the table,a waiting period to get a driving job ,or a means to pay for college.The fact that it offers health care and a pension is a plus not offered anywhere else.I know it is hard work and a lot of the sups suck ,but look elsewhere for what we get you will be hard pressed to find similar compensation.Let's face it we get paid pretty dam good for seeing to it that someone's package gets from here to there.
