[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 703606, member: 24302"] Thanks Mr.Mayor for the perspective. Concerning the nuts and bolts of it, if the traditional pension is reinstated, will it be retroactive, as if the cash balance plan never happened? Or will the money accumulated in the PPP be distributed at retirement/termination? Also, will it be possible for the company to make an offer to employees before a union vote in hopes of keeping it out? Something that might require us to give up any aspirations of a union in exchange for taking a deal? I'm at $17.09 after 11 years with no acknowledgment of the 11 years I worked before quitting and being rehired other than increasing my traditional pension until it was terminated. If they suddenly offered me $22hr+ and more in the PPP in exchange for voting against a union I'd have to take it. No doubt they'd as soon keep me at $17.09 but even they have to know it'll take a substantial improvement for most of us to keep the union out. I'm all for us getting close to UPS pay but they most likely will figure out a way to royally screw us if faced with much higher costs. They've made it very clear that we are here to make them very wealthy and if we don't like it we can leave. Don't see them rolling over for a union based on the last 20 years. [/QUOTE]
