Re: Teamsters Reach Tentative Agreements Covering 250,000 Workers At UPS, UPS Freight
Will we have time to read and digest the agreement before we vote, or will we just get a overview of the positive points handed to us. I remember in contracts past that there is sometimes not much time to analize the wording (especially if both sides are pushing for ratification). In today's lightning fast information age the details are likely to leak out rather quickly (I hope).

Agreed, I can't help but think healthcare took the "driver's seat" on this one. "Here's your healthcare and Here's a bunch of money! Happy now?!?"
Nah...not really.

Pay details:
Five annual raises:
70 cents
70 cents
70 cents
90 cents
1 dollar
I know that that adds up to $4.00, not $3.90, like I posted earlier, but this is one of those breaking news stories where sometimes conflicting information gets disseminated. The IBT should be posting the entire TA soon.

Lol we have had 3 different postings for what raises we are getting. All different.
Excluding health care, we are looking at $1.28 per hour per year. You don't see that as substantial?
Why is that a big fat no? You don't make enough already? 33 Bucks an hour to almost 37 by contract end isn't enough for you?
37 an hour for an unskilled labor job is doing pretty well in my book. No one will feel sorry for you. We are lucky to have this job. Dollar raises every year is unsustainable. Id be making 50 dollars an hour when i retire.

As we both should be. It's called inflation. Ask your parents what they started out making and what they finished making.
It's really not rocket science.
$4.50 over a 5 year contract is what we needed bare minimum to keep up with inflation.

The cake route I have now at 37 bucks an hour? I might be one of these guys that never retires.

That $2.50 in pension increases doesn't apply to New England. When they bought us out of the multi employer plan we were told the pension contribution rate would be frozen for 10 years. Put that $2.50 in our pay increases and then I WILL call that substantial.

We will have to wait and see the details but lets all be honest a raise that doesn't even cover the historical rate of inflation is by no means substantial.
It's $.80 in the 4th year hence the $3.90

I fully expected little to no raises in exchange for maintaining current P,H&W. I can live with it.
