You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Well teamcare has a large surplus we all know this. I would imagine other local plans are operating at least somewhat in the black.
So if the plans have money in the bank it would be political suicide for them to cut benefits for a week or two strike.
I know it seems hard to come by nowadays but it would be nice if people could use the little bit of common sense they have when discussing this stuff.

According to the TDU website article that I posted not all regions are covered. It did say TeamCare is.
The cost of COBRA self-payments vary and is determined by the specific plan you are covered under but generally it is the same premium cost being paid by your employer. Here in the WR177healthcare plan it is $445 dollars a week or $1,780 a month. FYI
They told us we would be covered in the event of a strike.
You’re willing to bet your livelihood on that? Why will UPS comeback with a better offer if they know we won’t strike?
I had to pay for COBRA 3 years ago, was $600 week for my family.
So what happens if god forbid you are in an accident or have a medical emergency that week?

200 a month in food stamps on a debit card too. Free dental and vision here and you sit right next to me at the same drs I go to. Also walk right in that emergency room anytime you feel like it no charge. You even sign up on line.

14.5 billion is a big lie. You won’t give line by line what adds up to 14.5 billion because we all know much of that 14.5 billion is company “gets”. Dues paying members that vote are not getting something from the increased starting rate, that is a company necessity based on the market conditions. Put that raise into existing part timers and you can have it as part of the 14.5 billion. We aren’t stupid like you and DT and just spit out numbers the company feeds you. You want it to pass the second time, I suggest doing more for existing members that are actually able to vote.

if that was true, no way they spend the last year constructing second floor multi million dollar automated small sort mezzanines across the northeast. they would have waited to see the outcome of this contract if they were planning on re modelling and trimming down there business before spending that money.
Or committed 28 and already took delivery of 8 747-8's and 3 767's. Only worth about $375,000,000 a piece.

actually they use the same if not more employees. its a speed thing not a labor cutting thing designed for HEAVY volume. Clearly you have no idea what you’re talking about.

Well when major shippers leave UPS won’t have to worry about HEAVY volume. Smart
Funny you think UPS would wait on this contract before investing in their business.
