[QUOTE="hondo, post: 186822, member: 8661"] Raceanoncr, it has been consistent, per person, be they UPS(about 40% of us) or not, friend/t or p/t (as I am), or even family of 705 members. But it has been a one time collection per person that I've seen in my 2+ years, for people in such dire straits well above and beyond what any H&W or disability plan would cover. Truth be told I'm not sure what our friend/t benefits package is, as I'm p/t and fall under co.'s plan. I did notice the steward that helped me out with a problem was out on disability for a blown out knee over peak/January (p/c driver) but didn't let on in any way that his family were hurting financially. Y'all's schemes probably wouldn't work for me in the hub, but sound like excellent models for package car centers or feeder depts (or freight barns); in tandem with their bennies. I can definitely see Helen's point of p/c drivers being too worn out (or jealous of bid routes) to get together on this. Maybe I should try to think of a tactful way to suggest this in the building. Just out of curiousity, what do you do for someone who becomes permanently disabled? [/QUOTE]
