[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1147925, member: 17969"] Lets clear up this "wages" theory once and for all. Where exactly did the raises come from? Did this cost UPS any "real" money or "new" money? The answer is simple. NO. Who then is funding these raises?? Think about it for a second. Well, if you said the part timers, then you'd be correct. By "EXTENDING" the progression period for ALL partimers, thats MONEY right out of their pockets and then given back to us in the form of WAGE INCREASES. Lets take a part timer who gets promoted to full time driver. By "EXTENDING" progression to top pay to 4 years, that extends itself over a one year period to $15,000 dollars in straight time and over time for the fourth year. Thats $15,000 times (x) each part timer who goes full time. Package drivers have to wait 2 years to make the extra .25 cents when they go to feeder. The international DIDNT get us higher wages from the company, they simply agreed to extend progression for part timers and take the money they are taking away from those part timers and applying it to wage increases. If this thing passes, then "WE" all owe the part timers a debt of gratitude for sacrificing themselves for the rest of us when we brag about the $3.90 cents we took out of their collective pockets.
