[QUOTE="Blackstream, post: 3518401, member: 49052"] Mine too, possibly we have the same hub (portland). The minimum wage hike has some special problems of its own I'd say... namely anyone who gets bumped up from it basically doesn't get any raises for a long time, including the sort pay raise. And given how demanding of a position it is, we're having issues keeping any quality sorters. So they're starting to resort to forcing the bluecoats to start in the sort aisle.... which is leading to injuries and also rampant missorts. Which at least partially responsible for crashing the building every night. While technically the union's concern, it's clearly also the company's concern. I mean, it's so much so the companies concern that UPS had to institute a $15 min wage just to get people coming in, and they did this just before contract season. My point being that this issue is so much in the best interest of both sides, the union really shouldn't be giving anything up to get this. [/QUOTE]
