[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 3070991, member: 8481"] I was in the Central States Southeast and Southwest Areas Health & Welfare Fund (CSH&W Fund), which became Teamcare, for over 20 years. We always had a deductible. I took the Company insurance when it was offered almost 10 years ago. No deductible. My bitch was not that I now have a deductible, had one for 20 years, my bitch was that it was a concession. I can see if putting me into Teamcare was for the greater good of all, but that was not the reason. We were told that Teamcare mirrors our current plan. That it was as good, or better, than what we had. It is what it is, but that doesn't mean that we cannot try and change it this contract. That's for sure. Don't worry, UPS will not let us strike over a healthcare deductible. The average family doesn't work for a Fortune 50 company, making billions of dollars, either. Ex-management telling us to strike? Wow. Let me say this again. UPS will not let us strike over a healthcare deductible. They already have us in Teamcare. It will cost them very little to eliminate the deductible. A one day strike would cost them far more. And they know it. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. You don't pay a deductible yet you are telling us to just accept our deductible and don't fight it. I guess you think you are better than us or that we don't deserve what you have. I will say this a third time. UPS will not let us walk out soley over a healthcare deductible. We will not need your so-called "public opinion" on our side. But don't worry, most UPSers don't have big enough kahunas to stand up to the company and demand eliminating the deductible. Or, there may be bigger issues than a deductible, like saving our pensions. [/QUOTE]
