The million dollar question…

[LVD*4*LIFE]

Will areas that have been working under an MRA still keep them, or will teamsters who have the MRA be reduced to their minimum contract wage?

Example - 9 year seniority employee contractually should be paid $18.30, but MRA is paying $21.00.

MRAs can come and go as the company pleases. That's why Sean should have either got rid of them or put language in the contract for them.

I thought for sure UPS would cancel all MRA raises when negotiations kicked off.

You would lose the MRA but would then be bumped up to $21 and would receive any longevity and/or general wage increases that you are entitled to.

Your new contractual rate would be $21.50. Thank you for the 9 years well give you an extra 50 cents for that and that’s basically an extra nickel per year of service. Enjoy your historic reward as our thank you.

They quit advertising MRAs as soon as contract negotiations got near. My guess, MRAs will be kept until January '24.

And you're welcome.

Ups is giving the MRAs because they figured out that is the minimum amount they can pay to get people in the door. They’re not giving it out of the kindness of their hearts

If you started Aug 2, 2013-Jan 31, 2014 at $8.50 an hour (split raises being the difference): the 9 year PT employees rate is $19.30 and the new rate is $19.30 +$2.75 + $0.50 = $22.55

So $1.55 more than a new hire for 9 years, 11 months, and 30 days worth of work at UPS in some cases.

MRA's are most certainly going away that was the whole point of bumping everyone to $21 as UPS figures this is the number that pulls in new hires.

So what exactly did you do to deserve that extra $1.55?

9.99 years of labor (including moving to a skilled position when they had those) for an extra $0.155 a year.

Bingo! They'll cancel the MRA's, PT will grumble and many will quit, only to be replaced by fresh suckers.

So, your job.....

You got a whole lot more raises than 15 cents a year buddy.

Which clearly wasn't valued come contract negotiation time. The whole point I am making TROLL.

Some got a $5.50 raise with no work having ever been done, some got $3.20 and are paid exactly the same as a new hire off the street, some got $3.25 raise after having been underpaid for years.

If you can't see the issue you are a troll and should ignore my posts as I can't explain the issue to a .

go away troll

9.99 yrs x 0.155 + starting rate for an employee on Aug 1= 21.55

justify that any way you want

I see you demanding more than people who do the same job as you, and yet you can't explain why you deserve it.

I started at UPS in 2016. How come I make the same as the feeder driver that started in feeder in 1974? He should be making like $236.55/hr if I'm making $42.
