[QUOTE="nhguy, post: 251043, member: 5248"] Agitator, You constantly talk about how the driver is the whole company and the only reason the company stays in business. I think all the hub people both a:m and p:m might have something to say about that. I can also assure you that without a good management team NO COMPANY would continue to stay in business let alone for 100 years. You keep drawing this old sad story of them against us. I can assure you that people in the management ranks are getting 2-2.5% pay raises each year, so what makes you think your special and deserve more than your boss. Secondly, it is not UPS'S responsibility to solve the health care problem in the US. They are paying more and more each year so you can keep what you have today. Write your congressman if you want change in the government, and by the way, let me know how that goes!! Lastly, just for your information, UPS knew 2 contracts ago that many of the pension funds were in trouble and that this day was coming to a head. Maybe go back to Ron Carey and ask him why he was so adamant about keeping the pension out of the companies hands. Guess what, the hand came begging for forgiveness and now UPS has to pony up over $6 billion dollars to save this one pension fund. If you really think about it, that is why this may not be the greatest contract for you as an individual. In negotiations, it is known that both sides give and take. It is foolish for you to think that the union can constantly expect to keep adding without ever subtracting. Wait till you see all the facts then decide what is best for you, but also allow all the others to decide what is best for them and their families.... Remember the big fish always eats the little ones! [/QUOTE]
