Raise in new contract

[Thebrownblob]

I seriously doubt we will see more than a buck an hour…but I’m being cautiously optimistic. We have never received more than a buck an hour and that buck is always in the last year…

Sean has made a pretty big deal about getting the most money from UPS ever, and remember when we get a raise, so does our union. I don’t think a dollar a year will cut it we shall see.

I'm clearly missing something you aren't. Can you show me your $16 breakdown?

Yes

Sure, but I'm not coming up with neatly that. Like, half.

We got a 15% raise over the life of the contract in 1997

Maybe he's talking about the pension contributions, the contributions to the healthcare and our hourly raises plus the cola raises?

Yes, $5.30 in wages, $10 in H/W pension and stock discount (if applicable).

I have permission from Mrs Gumby to go whenever I want to.
She just said I need to make a plan besides not working

I think we'll be around a $10 hourly raise by the end of the contract. Not sure how they'll split it up though

Well the extra dollar 15 per hour wasn't from the kindness of their heart it was from the cola raises

A hobby job…doesn’t sound like fun

I would like to take a half of your off with my body heal up then get a stupid job close to home working 12 to 15 hours a week

I took mrs Gumby’s purse and opened it up to let your balls escape and come back home to you….keep an eye out for them

I'm never one to be greedy, but the company got more than a 150% raise with the pandemic and inflation. That wouldn't bother me so much if we were treated appropriately during that time...we weren't. Then the BS they've pulled this year since peak, these guys.

I don't think I deserve 150% or anything crazy, I'd be content with $7/hr over the life of the contract with substantial HWP contributions, but I'm not sure I'm going for anything less than $3/hr wage increase Aug 1. I'll look at the whole contract, of course, but that's where I've settled my starting point.

I think the bar has been set so high and with all these rallies and the intl visiting so many buildings firing everyone up that if a decent proposal isn’t brought to the members they are going to vote it down big time I feel.

I don't recall, and I looked again, where did you get $10 increase for HWP?

I disagree that a stock discount (especially if it didn't change on base percentage) is a raise, but I'll deal with it for your argument.
