[QUOTE="The Milkman, post: 1219021, member: 22760"] Givebacks are just that, eventually you will not have anything left. Trust me someday when you are retired those givebacks will come back to haunt you. If all current friend/Ters are willing to let UPS chip away at their benefits then so be it. Again while UPS is raking in the profits at your expense there is no reason for any givebacks, if anything..leave them the way they are at current levels.. Anything less in my old local (177) benefit plan is a giveback. They add up contract over contract. If UPS was losing money like the auto companies did then YES you have to have concessions on both sides to keep the company afloat, SS BIG BROWN is not sinking as far as I can see. Just my thoughts as I see all future retirees and current friend/ters getting less with more and more placed on them. When a company is profitable I would think that everyone should benefit from the bloated Board all the way down to the preloders , Union car washers and porters (which many local do not have..I wonder why?) And I will say there are many jobs that pay more, my own nephew who is a geek sat in an office punching a keyboard yrs back making well over a 100k without all the OT and crap UPS dishes out..Gee here I am busting my tail 11-12 hrs daily while he is home by 5pm.
