[QUOTE="hondo, post: 4530865, member: 8661"] [USER=78240]@Capari1[/USER] and [USER=80867]@Astronaut2b[/USER] : [LIST] [*] CACH is small package (not freight). [*]The feeder (tractor-trailer) work is split up between the jurisdiction of 2 different Teamster Locals (#705 & #710). [*] The teams & "road" drivers are 710. [*] The "city/local" & yard work are 705. [*] Off the street hiring is generally into the 710 side. [*] If you want to get hired in to the 705 side, you have to work out an arrangement with management (wink-wink) to somehow first make seniority in a 705 job as a part-time package handler or full-time package car driver (40 working days). [*]As far as pay, once you reach the top pay rate (and otherwise have the seniority to bid on highest paying runs), the 710 side wins out. Otherwise the pensions & benefits are pretty close to each other. [*]The 2 Locals each have their own separate labor contract with the company (separate & distinct from the "National Master UPS" contract, and as far as I know, the neither Local has their contract available online. [*]And the sleeper teams spend very little time waiting for loads. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
