TENTATIVE AGREEMENT REACHED AT UPS

[Zowert]

There’s still a chance. The “$25 or no vote” PT crowd will be up in arms.

Yeah it’s a pretty big movement. Let’s see if they actually vote. I am just going to toss a coin, heads yes, tails no. A $2.75 raise on top of $42, so $44.75/hr plus COLA will put me a little over $45. I feel like UPS can pay me more, this isn’t FedEx.

 

[Ptrunner]

$1.50 for long time part timers? that is so weak.

Yup I agree I’m voting it down. I want to see 22.3 progression too. I have a lot of coworkers that deserve to have that fixed.

Don’t we still hit the streets if we reject the supplements? , my vacation is next week. Lol

 

[The Range]

It's not enough

 

[Trucker Clock]

It is a compromise by both sides. Do you want UPS to lose to FedEx or DHL or USPS?

Everybody here said let the Union do what they do. Negotiate the contract. Quit second guessing SOB's tactics. That's why we have a Union.

Now, SOB is happy with what he negotiated and now people are saying it's not good enough.

You can please some of the people some of the time........If Hoffa was still here, we would be lucky to get $5 over the 5 years, 22.4 would not be gone, forced 6th punch would not be dealt with. etc. etc.

Yes, there are a few issues, but we haven't seen it all yet, and from the highlights, it sure as hell blows the last contract out of the water.

 

[Just A UPS Guy]

Yeah 21-23-24-28. That’s bs wages and causes a lot of divorces to get through progression.

I'm sure those are changing. Hard to believe a driver would start at less than a package handler.

 

[Trucker Clock]

No.

Plus $2.75 and $7.50 over the length of the contract.

 

[UnionStrong]

No announcement on reducing progression. At T-Force, got lowered to 2 years.

5 years now

 

[Trucker Clock]

Plus $2.75 and $7.50 over the length of the contract.

Yep. They would be around $30/hr. Plus COLA if need be.

We are a veeerrryyyy small minority here, most don't speak for the masses.

 

[DELACROIX]

They are thinking UPS cannot afford it and the dividends will not be what they were.

Just wait a couple of hours, it will ride with the SP 500 … by the end of the day it probably will be back to 190..

 

[tourists24]

Nope…(Master language) Article 34…

For what it's worth, I just got off the phone with a fairly reliable source that said that the jump would be an extra 1000 month. Take it with a grain of salt for now, but I trust the source

 

[Sacrificial Lamb]

That shouldn’t be, but hubrats were getting paid more via MRAs. They need to fix that.

 

[nWo]

Hopefully full-timers show up to vote this time.

No.

Potentially, it's Pandora's Box, really. If 39 of 44 supplements and the NMA are ratified, where do you take it?

 

[catstalking]

Lol. Stock immediately down 5 bucks since TA was announced. Stock market is a funny place. Rich manipulating numbers. Were probably hoping for a strike to scoop and sell when deal was reached. Like vultures searching for roadkill.

They are thinking UPS cannot afford it and the dividends will not be what they were.

no, they bought the rumor and are selling the news

it's really simple people

Don’t think you can do away with 22.4 and lower progression. I mean you can wish it but won’t happen imo

 

[Trucker Clock]

You find out why the Supplements didn't pass and sit back down.

The same thing happened at ABF. I think 1 Supplement was rejected. They sat back down and worked it out.

 

[Wontmake9.5]

I think $10 for FT was the offer and then we gave up $2.50 for PT so now we get $7.50. Vote no. Not that impressed.
