[QUOTE="EasyMoneySonny, post: 3120536, member: 68765"] I think the Union should take future & curent minimum wage into consideration. Preloading is not a minimum wage job to begin with. In California minimum wage is 10.50, as of now that is. By January it will $11. That'll be leaving me a miserable $.50 higher pay rate than that of minimum wage, which is just total BS. I beleive all PT's should be getting anywhere from $2-4 more above whatever the minimum wage in the state is. In addition to that, all raises aquired through seniority should be added as well. Otherwise, what's the point of getting a $.50 raise on your seniroty date. and then the law requiring everyone to make $.50 more in january. It just doesn't make sense. Union has to make PT's pay $2-4 more above any minium wage, and if you combine this with a raise that beats the one of the yearly state required raise, no one will feel that their anniversay/union raises are useless. As a a result, that $15/h by 2020 goal won't have much effect on UPSers since PT's will be earning more than minimum wage and will be happy. /end of rant [/QUOTE]
