[QUOTE="rod, post: 1112580, member: 5382"] If I recall right we got 55 bucks week strike pay and you had to turn around and pay back about 75 bucks a week to keep the medical insurance up. Its not how much you will lose while on strike its how much you will lose for the rest of your UPS career if you just roll over and play dead. The secret is to plan ahead and save enough to exist for 2 or 3 weeks (maybe a month) if a strike happens (you should have that saved up and MORE at all times anyway). UPS strikes don't last that long. Actually its a good time to sit back, have a few cold ones and watch the circus and the games that are played by both sides during a strike. Everyone should go through at least one strike in their career just so you appreciate what those who went before you fought for. [/QUOTE]
