Contract passed!

And that’s fine and dandy but I’m not a 22.4 driver, we didn’t have to pay anything for insurance the last contract either, and Martin Luther king day is racist and not enough to make up for inflation. Not to mention I don’t like celebrating a woman beaters day.
What I'm trying to say is maybe that's not a direct raise but is more money in your pocket

There's not too many places where you don't have to pay at least a little something towards your health care

Ask management how much they pay

Yes I get it. There’s also not too many places that put the demands on you that ups does either. Working long oddball shifts where u can’t see your family. We’ve earned that. I’ve said this since I started here, if ups didn’t give me free health ins. and pay the kind of money they do, there is no way in hell I would even entertain doing this job. I would be off working for myself making :censored2: money before I work for someone else making :censored2: money.

I know it sucks sometimes but lots of people have hard jobs and make a whole lot less than we do

Yeah, I’m just not one that puts up with that. Like I said if they didn’t pay what they pay I wouldn’t be here. Can’t speak for anyone else, just me. That’s why I say the things I do. In todays world you can just volunteer to clean someone’s property out and make six figures. There are quite a few ways to make money.

What language? It doesn’t put money in my pocket. I don’t mean to be self centered, but we’ve all had the price of goods increase. Language doesn’t pay the bills
You don’t mean to be self-centered? Well you are you doing A very good job of it lol. Keeping the 22.4 would’ve been disastrous for the Teamsters moving forward would be so much division there wouldn’t be a job most likely. And you can hate Martin Luther King all you want but he’s making you triple pay that day most likely, so yes he did put money in your pocket. Lol

Double time and a half. Not sure what you meant with the 22.4 jobs, doesn’t pertain to me. look, I pay dues like everyone else, 22.4 has nothing to do with me, fix it for them, fine. What about me? I don’t give two squirts about it. And sorry, I would have much rather had $5 up front 8/1 and nothing the fifth year. That’s all they would have had to do and no fulltimer would bitch one bit.

Yes, they have everything to do with you we have a union for a reason. Everything you’re saying makes you sound like the most pathetic, worthless human being I could ever imagine and I’m gonna guess you probably are. You’re too ignorant to see that you’re cutting your nose off to spite your face.

No I’m not, and I don’t care. They don’t pay the bills. If they didn’t give us those benefits, I wouldn’t be here. I’m just speaking for myself. If your time isn’t worth that much, then that’s up to you. Mine is.
This job is way below you, you really should just quit. 🤞

Lol, no you’re too pathetic to see, or admit, that the union never should have allowed the 22.4 in the first place. But did because somebodies palms got greased. I’m tired of getting :censored2:ed!! I don’t sit and pretend that everyone has my best interest in hand, and everything is honky dory. I’m saying this stuff for the betterment of everyone in the union, not just the chosen few who were highlighted! This was our contract to really make a difference, and they failed miserably. What connection do you have to the union that you can’t see and admit that?
