the problem is that while ups is paying a great overall compensation the union wont divvy up the money so that the pters get their fair share while subsidizing the fters...its communistic.....most pters wont last to retirement........dont blames ups for this situation but the onus is squarely on the union......perspective is such that pters do get ft benefits while working half the hours.......this situation has been a long time and Sean is doing a great job in rectifying this pt/ft inequality.. it wont happen satisfactory in this contract but in a huge step in the correct direction........I would vote a tepid yes
