RTW- Leaving the Union.

Better get to the doctors

Just more cream for me to rub on it

They would have to with you and the few days you work. Your check would probably be a negative number.

Yeah well I'm at SeaWorld right now and this penguin has something to say to you.

I'll just throw in my 2 cents and make the elementary argument that if everyone was a bunch of freeloaders that it would simply ruin good things for everyone. That's common sense.

Oh, and as far as where @coolslice got the insurance, pension, and pay that he gets from UPS, they specifically would give those things to him because he's the BestDriverAlive™.

But what's more interesting for me than the topic of this thread is that @olroadbeech isn't being attacked like she usually is! Hey, what exactly DID she do anyways to get all the hate she does on just about every other thread that she posts in?

So, what you are saying is everybody can’t be a @Turdferguson?

Ours is $95 a month.

Mine were like 38 when I retired. I didn't complain about that at all.

Sea World was great before the save the whales crowd tamed them down. No more Shamu shows I hear.

Still have a show where they do all the flips, dives and that stuff. Just no one in the water.

I do something for the Union every Friday. They allegedly do something for me every 5 years.

I'm still curious why you homers aren't volunteering more of your paycheck to the teamsters to show you debt of gratitude to the union? I can't seem to find anyone here that wants to give the union more money than is required? It could only benefit you, right? In my best Chris Farley voice- "Hmmm. That's a mystery!"

You literally are retarded. You are calling us out for not paying more money to the union....when you are trying to get into a position to not pay dues at all yet still enjoy pension, amazing healthcare and job security.

Your efforts to insult us and try to make us look brainwashed is cringey. You are literal . You are actual dogshìt. You are not worthy to even talk to us.

Us paying dues? I pay my dues. GLADLY. My son cost me $0 when he was born. My wife had a horrible labor. Lots of medication. A 5 day after birth stay in the hospital with lota of monitoring and drugs.

$0. The woman at admissions looked shocked when she told me my co-pay was 0. She said I had an amazing insurance policy.

My surgery later that year that puts most people back $3,000+ or whatever their family deductible? $10.

I pay my dues. I know and appreciate the value of the good things in my life.

You are an ungrateful, worthless human being who doesn't know how to be a team player. You are actual .

 

[Star B]

or... how about this.

I'll pay your dues. If I can get your protections, insurance, pension and pay.

You will get to enjoy $17.00/hour on a 10 "step" (read: NOT YEAR) progression, a cash balance pension plan "portable pension", and half-ass insurance.

We are working on the 19 step here with the 22.4 jobs

Seeing what the job has become, I discourage everyone that asks me about getting a job there. If my kids wind up working for UPS, I will consider it my biggest failure as a parent. I'm sure that after years of seeing their dad too sore and tired to do anything, and never being at any school or extracurricular activities during the week, they'll know better and look elsewhere, Even if they do make less money. Money isn't everything, and anyone that drives for UPS should know that better than anyone- or so I thought.

Your kids' dad is sore and weak because he is a bítch.

That's what the company and the union both want. The company wants to beat you up for a few years then replace you with somebody younger, faster and cheaper. The union wants new initiation fees plus people that put into the pension and do not have enough time to collect it

 

[Misthios]

I can appreciate that situation, but that $100 you're saving is basically canceled out by your dues.

Insulin is just one medication and a big one. Add up all the others that she needs plus if my kids need any in sitting pretty good. $10 to see the specialist? Cool. $10 to go to medcheck no additional costs? Sign me up. You can crap all over whatever you please but how many people out there are paying $60 a month for the benefits we have? My brother in law pays $400 a month to the post office for benefits to cover his family. So I think I'm coming out ahead.

Mine were like 38 when I retired. I didn't complain about that at all.

Mine were free and now that I’m 65, it pays for my Supplement and Drugs with money left over.
It’s great being retired management!

Of course my $3.25 a month from the Teamsters goes a long way ... at least when added to my $5845 UPS Management pension.

And in your case, better looking!

I see the Teamsters are paying you what you were worth as an hourly employee.

Pretty sad. It was exciting watching Shamu carry one of those good looking babes balanced in its nose for the length of the pool.

Why do you think that is ?


Be a man, pickup the phone and call your Local to find out what their procedure is.

Don't be some chicken.... and think there is some "super secret" way.

Nobody is going to miss you, or your petty little dues money.


You're just afraid of people finding out.



-Bug-

I forgot to ask @coolslice a pertinent question.


You "write off" your union dues on your taxes every year.... right ?
