Rumor spread of MN starting top scale pay of next contract

[I have been lurking]

$50/hr isn't going to happen. We have to be realistic.

We have to maintain and improve our health insurance and pensions.

It will, cause we Zimbabwe now

I don’t thing people know what it costs for housing on the west coast… let alone in San Diego…it’s stupid…ask @542thruNthru, he’s living in a double wide over by the airport..

Raises will be the same as always. Especially if we are going to attempt to get ride of the 22.4 language, pay a much higher starting PT wage and a catch up raise for PTers. All things promised.

We'll see. There is a very large wish list and it's growing by the day it seems.

If I want to keep the part-time workforce intact they have to change their ways a little bit.
Either more money or more hours
I'll give him a flexible schedule where they can work another job

Most PT don't want more hours. They just want more pay and more than the guy below them. I personally think PT needs a progression like driver's. Topped out at a certain time then annual raises after that.

I work in a center in the NW, one of supervisors who came out to our center said to another driver they already locked in the starting top rate for the next contract. I am highly skeptical of this as it seems to be a bit early and imo almost an extra contractual agreement before even seeing any National or regional language that's been suggested yet. I'm thinking it's just a sup running their mouth but the amount is close to $50/hr which seems highly unlikely as in NW we'll be just above $41/hr. Thoughts or ideas appreciated (especially with anyone in MN who might've heard anything).

You sure? I heard $55?

But they also need a regular schedule.
Some people are in school, some people have kids a part-time job isn't working 6 days a week double shifting.

True. A set schedule would be nice but seems impossible to do with this job. Hell I'd love a set schedule lol.

UPS has had to convert many PT jobs to 22.3 jobs just to fill them. $30+/hr plus a FT pension just to save money by paying PT peanuts.

Are you going for 70 and out?

At 70 1/2 I can collect SS and pension and a paycheck and 401k disbursements. I figure $150k working about 20 hours a week.
