[QUOTE="westsideworma, post: 184829"] My uncle must be full of it haha, he worked there 1981-86 (while in college haha) and he could have swore they made more than 8.50....whether he did or not I obviously don't really know and I bet he doesn't either (it was over 20 yrs ago lol) thats the only reason I say that they made more. Actually most places around here pay better than UPS (11.50 an hour), but the benies aren't as good. I'm just saying you get what you pay for and the work we do is hard as well, maybe not 8-12 hrs of it like the drivers, but 5-6hrs to load 1200 pieces (well if you're a preloader) ain't no cakewalk either. Our raises are decent however, it takes 4 years to even be eligible to get them via wage progression...I think thats what really bothers people. Maybe not even the 4 years part but the fact the raises are paltry. After 4 years we make 12.25 (if you're a preloader/sort) drivers are at 27-28+ in 2.5. No I'm not saying we need (or deserve) driver rates...but 12.25 isn't much considering what they expect of us. [/QUOTE]
