[QUOTE="olroadbeech, post: 2343039, member: 52145"] w what did the Teamster rep say? you wondering if he was telling the truth? this is what the union did for me. old job about 35k a year ( 1991 ) UPS 1st year 60K. non union job 1 week vaca and no sick days or paid holidays. UPS: 7 weeks vaca, 9 sick days , and i think we got 8 paid holidays. non union job. terrible medical insurance. maybe 50%. high co-pay on prescriptions. UPS: insurance pays 90% . scripts were FREE. last full year I worked I made 115k in wages and maybe 30-40k in benefits. most all medical was free. all for about $78 a month in union dues. friends that are working non union jobs are making maybe 40-50k a year , with :censored:ty bennies. it's a no brainer.
