[QUOTE="gotbrown, post: 1110227, member: 43356"] Why are people willing to accept any of this? People saying they will pay this but not this much only if the benefits stay the same. I say friend that, We should not consider concessions in health care at all! I agree with most, we work hard for our benefits and pay. At best i would concede the new contract would be the same as current with a bump in pay for part timers, as negotiations stand now and they don't even come close to what is stated above then I would say strike and friend UPS. As many have stated before this will dictate future negotiations if we take a hit like this now with record profits, bonus and raises for the CEO. Then this is the begining of the end for the union at UPS and for all across the country... If we fail here we fail all who have come before us and the future for all unions. This will be a benchmark contract...STRIKE if we have to pray we don't.. [/QUOTE]
