Tentative agreement

[bowhnterdon]

BUG, where are you? You really need to help sell this for DT. I know, I know, we haven’t seen the TA agreement yet. This Union going to pull out all the stops to get this passed. Or forced..

Or maybe start living within your means, less green seats more bleachers ya know?

We get more than a 3% increase in work each year. Why shouldn't we expect a good raise?

Sorry man but, do we work for the same company? The same company that cuts routes because of pieces/stop counts?

Because to me it should be obvious if they have extra workers that they can use to do 2 or 3 hours of deliveries they will most definitely cut routes.

I’m sure agreement will address that

$1 is a good raise

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

$1 is a good raise

Not saying it isn't. But they aren't going to offer it.

I’m sure agreement will address that

I'm sure also that the company will ignore it. Just like they do with almost all language. Yes we can grieve it but that's not always a sure win and when it is, it takes months.

I like how we are supposed to be happy that the same number of FT driving jobs will remain. Nothing said about adding more fulltime driving jobs down the line. 22.4 will be used to keep people from ever making what we do until absolutely necessary.

I don't care how they word it. 22.4 is a shame and I hope this contract goes down in flames.

Now sell me the same line of BS we hear every contract year. "Don't you want the company to succeed. You'll put yourselves out of buisness." Blah blah blah.

It gets old 542... doesn’t it...it would be nice if the people we are employed by would just be honest with us for once...gmamf break

Absolutely, bottleneck of grievances that just go away...

So you’ve seen agreement?

 

[Indecisi0n]

So you’ve seen agreement?

I've seen it but can't comment yet.

 

[Coldworld]

We received 3.90 over 5 on last agreement. Only a .50 add but no splits adds to the total and would be nice. Need to wait and see it in writing.

I don’t think a buck a year was asking for over the top raises....

 

[Chester]

Not in my local

 

[Coldworld]

Yes. And order some more supplies.

Ok ... I’ll get with the proper authorization papers in then it’s go time...

 

[TheFigurehead]

I would just say, you don't have to dress like a purple dinosaur anymore

I mean... you do realize that UPS chose the colors of pi$$ and $#i+ to represent the company, right? I'm not sure it's any better than purple.

I got him some new brass knuckles. @silverbullet2893 is ready to pass out some stunners.

Hybrid driver's are GREAT, hopefully this passes part timer's can finally get some more hours and fulltimers can stop crying about too many hours
