Teamster Buyout?

[Johney]

If it takes away retiree, health care, that's a complete deal breaker, nobody will take that.

Don't be too sure of that.

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

Don't be too sure of that.

I'm just saying that more reasonable then 7k a year.

What a ing disgrace.

That’s a lotta coin up in the mountains , plus if I didn’t even work at UPS I probably wouldn’t need healthcare cause my body would actually heal.

they grow a lot of mushrooms up in the mountains don’t they?

Doomed...take whatever buyout they offer.

Maybe there is a package car driver that needs a little more time to retire but his body is shot.

I was VERY HEAVY weight wise and volume wise on my first route I held for a while. Which is why I took it easy for so many years. My first stop got so heavy and had two sister companies on same street that they literally had to start getting delivered by semi.
I paid my frigging dues in short time and decided to coast afterwards.

Sprocket & Gear place, another with wood spools of cable with crazy weights, and so on.

Again buddy, not trying to be a dick and argue about it. But it's simply my call, that's seniority.

Same as the s who cried and moaned because I always took the week of spring break with my kids while they were in school. off dicks I had to wait so will you.

Thoughts?

2 different companies and 2 different situations, but for what it's worth my brother was at Southwest Airlines for a long time. When the "dreaded" Covid hit a few years back and they were wanting to thin the herd they offered ramp type workers and such one and a half years pay to say goodbye.

Seems simple right

 

[BadIdeaGuy]

No they just shut the whole building down, lol

Lmao. Fair.

$210,000 for a 30 year employee? Why? When they can just run them into the ground and force them to say screw it and retire. I'm not buying it...if it sounds too good to be true it likely is.

Especially since it's UPS we are talking about here.

Sean O’Brien thinks SHE’s hot.

We have two 30 year drivers in our building who are close...but they aren't 55 and still have kids at home. I don't see them leaving even for 200k if they gotta pay for insurance

Would love to hear that call when they found out SOB was going to be stopping by their building.

 

[RangerMan06]

That would put you over a quarter million

I'm gone and the hell with insurance

You've been with UPS long enough to know they don't always do what's best or even smart financially.

Since they are obligated to hire 30k employees by 28 in the contract and because their business plan is to "get smaller," you wonder if their plan is to buyout employees in hopes that 30 or more thousand take it so that they can meet the contracted numbers?

Otherwise they will be breaking the 30k hires obligation.

That’s why I was talking about the sleight-of-hand or using creative wording. UPS is the king of this in contract language.

 

[Thebrownblob]

I'm being told it's 7k per year of service they are offering as a buyout

Yeah, that doesn’t sound like it’s gonna happen.

 

[Thebrownblob]

Yes a Porter, I'm assuming you have those in your building?

The cleaning/Base jobs that come available every so often that the highest seniority full timers grab.

By me it's a flat 8 hours // no OT // 30 minute PAID break. So working 7.5 and getting paid for 8, I like that. And if you think I'm working 7.5 hours well ya.....

We do not have porters here.
