Why do we think we should be able to retire at 50 with 27 years and also get health coverage? No system can afford to pay people not to work for 30 plus years, unless it's a govt. pension.
Anyone who plans on living in retirement solely of their company funded pension is crazy, or who puts all their money in company stock is nuts. Look at Enron, Worldcom, etc. I am trying to make it so I can retire on what I contribute, and anything else I might recieve is a bonus.

Exactly!! The attitude of some on here is scary. Economics is obviously not their bag. (Mine either, but I do understand some basics.) The early settlement is also an attempt to avoid nervous shippers diverting volume.

no smoking here !!!! just know the angels are going to do well. i bet your glad we are playing your rivals first and not you !!!!Yes he is crazy and you can put down the pipe please
We can retire at age 50 with health care because thats what they agrreed to.
Don't ever sell yourself short. Remember all those 12 hour days and boldface lies. Maybe you can get to know your grandchildren because you sure as hell didn't see your kids grow up. We made them those billions of dollars in profit. I hate when people are so willing to give away what they worked for.

Your right, I am sorry for bitching, I will take whatever UPS throws at me even if it is less than the last contract and I will vote yes to any garbage contract they offer, once again my apologies..
My god.....here we go again.
Remember those 12 hour days?
YOU chose to do them.
Didn't see your kids grow up?
YOU chose UPS as being more important then your children if that is the case.
You made those sacrifices. UPS didn't force you to do it. You could have chosen to go work some where else, no? We all have parts of our job we don't like. You can either deal with it and stop the complaining or go find another job.
It's not for everyone.

Does anyone have a reference for why the contract should be signed before January 08? What penalty is involved and what law?

Yeah, I did the same. I searched Google, too. NADA! I've seen Mr. Black's statement about being done in time for October 1 repeated a couple times elsewhere. I really hate to admit it but I think they're done negotiating and just awaiting the opening bell on Monday to announce. JMO. -Rocky
