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

Maybe not, but you can tweak it.

$25, $30, $35, $40, Top Rate.

 

[no_map_needed]

Not enough to address forced overtime. If it passes it passes but I'll vote no unless they make a code in the timecards for auto 9.5 payout.

 

[Wontmake9.5]

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

$7.50 over the entire contract. That and is misleading reread again

Sure

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

You talking about the “Lemmings” …

Off the Cliff they go….

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.

Past contracts, we screwed the PTers. If there was $10 to go around, we took the whole $10. They got nothing and we got everything. This time around, at least in appearance, the FTers were standing up for the PTers.

Now, they did better. There was $10 to go around. In appearance, we stood up for the PTers and gave them $2.50 of our $10.

I’m seeing different things on Reddit and here. Will have to wait for official contracts to be posted.

Very disappointing they didn’t take care of part timers with 15-30 years of seniority. They easily could’ve done that with a Covid bonus for full and part timers that was rumored 3000.

As of now I’m a vote no and will encourage others. We have people dying in trailers, no ventilation I wanted to see more safety for global warming and take care of existing employees and what I got was taking care of new hires.

If that’s the case that’s a no brainer for UPS. Take it away from the guys working 50-60 hours and give it to the guys working 20 hours.

 

[Mr.Blonde]

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

All I gotta say is they better start taping up boxes…

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.

The process played out and our representatives are happy with it. The bar was raised and financial gains made.

Way too many trolling and causing unnecessary drama. I think most of the posters are not even going to be able to vote on it because they are retired or aren’t members.

“The fat lady hasn’t sung yet”…

The preferred nomenclature is plus size lady, please sir

3.5% per year during record profits and inflation is not a historic win. No!

 

[govols019]

I'm reserving judgment until I see what improvements were made to the pension.

 

[GameCockFan]

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

Plus the $2.75 GWI, so $4.25

 

[MECH-II]

Lots of warning letters next month

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

Everyone would continue working and those in the 5 defeated supplements would continue to work under the terms of their current supplements until the new ones have been ratified.

$7.50 over the entire contract. That and is misleading reread again

$2.75/hr on 8/1/23 and $4.75/hr spread out over the last 4 years, with COLA added if applicable.

Congratulations! This is far more generous that I ever imagined. MLK added as a holiday (I would have preferred an additional optional day). The creation of 7,500 FT jobs and the fulfillment of 22,500 open positions (?) over the life of the contract. PTers bumped to $21/hr to start with GWI raises. No more forced OT and the seniority based option of M-friend or T-S. AC in new PCs purchased and put in to service on or after 1/1/24. On the downside, it does not appear that 9.5 was addressed. It was suggested above that the payroll system be tweaked to add automatic penalty for anyone who works over 9.5----while this is probably not going to happen, something needs to be done to reduce dispatch and to add some teeth to the 9.5 grievance process, to include penalties for grievances not resolved and/or paid in a timely manner.

This is why it was crucial to continue making pickups and to NOT advise your larger accounts to move their volume to a competitor, even on a short term basis as they most likely would not have come back.

The key now is to make sure everyone votes. It couldn't be easier----everything is mailed to the address that the union has on file. Open outer envelope, mark ballot, reassemble as directed, drop in mailbox. Shop stewards and senior drivers need to get the word out to everyone in their buildings to VOTE. Come in a bit early and get with the PTers to make sure that they vote.

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

That's why I said I'm sure the progression rates are changing.

 

[MECH-II]

Don’t see anything about earlier start times…VOTE NO
