Twitter. Looks like the company is trying to get rid of 22.4

Yes, those raises are impolite and hurtful, lol in other words, they can keep dreaming

Did I read that right.. elimination of top pay for new hires?

can you put a bigger target on our backs?

The real kicker is actually lowering your raise if it’s a deflation cycle!

Not a hell of a lot to lower LOL

The good news here is it looks like we’re mostly fighting over money, most of the other things the company and the union are in agreement. Pretty normal for the first offer on each side to be high and low respectively. Let’s see what happens in the next couple weeks.

If they really are trying to establish a new top pay for new hires, it’s nothing more than word gymnastics to bring back 22.4 under a different classification.

UPS low balled. To be expected.

IBT responded appropriately

It’s the first proposal they’re going to try anything we’re just gonna say no obviously that’s what Sean did.

Here it is, pitiful

Let me get this straight.. the Company wants to give us a .55 cent raise divided in half.. 27 1/2 cents here 27 1/2 cents there…

Limiting COLA and added a deflation clause.

I sure hope that our negotiators were laughing when they left the table…

Just added more fuel to the fire …

Oh I get it, it’s sad/funny that they have the gall to eliminate 22.4 and in the same proposal bring them right back using different verbiage.

Let me get this straight.. the Company wants to give us a .50 cent raise divided in half.. 25 cents here 25 cents there…

Limiting COLA and added a deflation clause.

Their entire raise proposal I want the first year.

But seriously…their first proposal…?

First and final offer?

I’ve been involved with lots of negotiations with other companies contract negotiations. This is not abnormal for a first economic proposal. The only issue I have here is that there is little time.

Did they have Dave Murray make this offer?

At this point in the game you would think the company wouldn’t waste any more time…the exact reason why I’m not taking all of their “if you see the competition at our account call this hotline number” seriously. They obviously don’t care, so why should we ???

Last, best, final
