Haven't had subway in a few years. Read this eating a 5$ foot long that is now 12$ and also has tip suggestion on top of it. Happy for a raise but definitely doesn't stretch like it use to.

plenty of people lost their job or companies folded and some of you think you deserve a bonus is wild to me
I am so tired of hearing people tell me how I good I have it at UPS like I didn't sacrifice 9 years of blood sweat and tears waiting for a driving job. Not to mention, we worked peak hours for 2 years. Get out of here with your bull:censored2:.

Everyone at my hub is convinced it's 10.25 over the length of the contract with the first 2.75 being paid this year after ratification. If the total over 5 yrs is 7.50.. that's not very exciting.
As a 22.3 I'm not making enough to hang with inflation already. By 2028 I'll be making what a 22.2 makes now. Lol
It’s not. It’s $7.50 for the life of the contract, someone called our hall and they confirmed it. Poorly worded.

crazy to me how anyone thinks they deserve some covid pay
Do you even see some of the sacrifices we had to make because of that bs? I know I'm gonna oust myself to anyone on here that knows the real me but idgaf.
I spent 3 months away from my family due to one in my house having autoimmune issues. 3 months. Let that sink in. Should I have just walked away from a 20 year job? Do you think ups was gonna work with me? No.
I also was quarantined for possible exposure and symptoms for almost 2 weeks at the beginning all alone. On top of peak hours, alot of uncertainty, delivering vaccines to medical places where COVID was present, on top of regular deliveries to customers who had it at the time. So yeah, hazard pay would have been a nice gesture.

You could have taken fmla and not worked, so stop with the quit after 20 years crap..and I know people who had to close the doors on their small companies and let their employees go...A nice gesture is nothing like saying you deserve it either...

The tears I definitely believe and sweating is good for you as long as you have fluids to replenish. You're not delivering in Mali in the late summer, so I assume you have access to water / electrolytes....

I could have and had my bill severely strained if not defaulted on. But that wasn't the question you asked. You asked why people think we should have gotten covid pay aka hazard pay. I gave a few examples. I could give a crapload more. But I could care less as honestly as I survived. The union honestly should have asked for it when they had the chance when COVID was still a big unknown and we were being put to at the time unknown risks. And as for the closed businesses that has 0 to do with what was being said. It's sad, unfortunate and heartbreaking but irrelevant to this Convo.

I wonder if we'd be forced to get the jab of death then
