[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5770867, member: 24302"] I stayed in the traditional because it was a better deal than the PPP. But I know senior couriers who already had their 25 years in the traditional who switched over. Had one tell me he lost over $12k not waiting for the transition credits. But that's not the point. The company was willing to put out material making the new plan sound great. At no point did they let on that everyone who didn't switch would be forced into it anyways but would be given extra money to soften the blow. They wanted to see how many people could be lured in so that they didn't have to pay the extra money. Sure, people shouldn't have trusted them. But imo it was at that point the company signaled they would do everything possible to hold pay and benefits down so that they could spend more on Ground infrastructure. P.S. I have no problem with topped out couriers getting 3% raises. I have a problem with midrange only getting 2% while telling us you just hang in there, better pay is right around the corner. And I worked in enough stations around the country to know mgrs were being told to lie to us. [/QUOTE]
