Raise in new contract

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

@IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U…set this kid straight.

People don't realize what our benefits cost.

We will definitely get more money than this current contract but unfortunately too many people set the expectations a little bit too high.

We should get 2 bucks+ an hour imo… what do people want 5 bucks an hour??? All the trolls come out about this time of year.

Same ones don’t file grievances, skip their lunch, work off the clock, and don’t even bother to vote on contractual issues, or even in their local union elections.
Quick to complain about everything, including saying we’ve lost “everything” even while somehow we managed to continue being the top paid in the industry. go check out the FedEx forms if you don’t believe me and see what they make, I’m not saying we don’t deserve more. I’m saying acting like a tough guy one time every five years and they’re not doing anything the other four years does not make you have “a pair”.

I'll say that @textat3 is completely unreasonable with his $20 demands, but you two are selling us short here. "People don't realize what our benefits cost" is accurate, but many of us do. What also isn't being considered with that is the 20% - 30%+ increases being negotiated with companies across the nation who also pay a ton into HWP. $8.50ish is 20% over the life of the contract. $3.50 up front plus another $5 over 4 years is the absolute least we deserve, along with standard HWP increases like so many others are getting. I'm a reasonable guy, but if these less profitable companies can afford it, I'm getting mine. Especially after the way we were treated in 2020 and 2021. I see your point, but don't sell yourselves/us short.

It took a big toll on me, it took a toll on all of us.
I am super happy that management got a bonus while they worked from home.....

I believe my guesstimate was somewhere around $8.50 spread out over five years, could be different amounts for different years, as they move the shells around but I believe it will be right around there, and should be.

If we don’t get a good bump I’m voting no…and imo we’ve been treated like crap ever since I started here, it’s not a recent thing. The more we can get the better afaic so we’ll see what happens

Management bonuses went up, management base pay went up, management "managed" from the safety of home...we got called heroes by them in public and threatened in the buildings. . THOSE. GUYS.

Yeah, that bonus was total bs…union should have pushed back on that.

What would you like to see in wage increases for 5 years?

Whatever it is, it can’t be too much more then I stated because @IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U may never leave. LOL
