The million dollar question…

[Its_a_me]

I started at UPS in 2016. How come I make the same as the feeder driver that started in feeder in 1974? He should be making like $236.55/hr if I'm making $42.

because the union agreed to a top rate and a progression to that top rate in FT.

In PT there is no top rate and no progression to that top rate. You get extra for having worked extra years.

Well the union seems to have agreed that you don't deserve for your "experience" performing a job any and every person here learned all there is to know about in the first 90 days.

Wrong they value it at $0.155 per year. It used to be just over a 1/4 of what a FT made.

By the end of this contract it will be more than 1/2 of what a FT makes. So they obviously are starting to value PT'ers more than FT'ers by your logic. Who do you think they sell out next contract...

So you appreciate it?

They already shorted us to get you that $.155/yr bump. You're welcome.

The Facebook and Reddit ups areas are pretty much on fire…a dumpster fire. It could be a very close vote.

You're hearing from a few dozen to a few hundred opinions out of tens of thousands. I'm telling you, 60%+ vote passes.

Maybe. There’s some feeder big boys that are rolling around with pitchforks and torches ready for war.

I hope. When measured against inflation proposed wages fall short. Drivers starting progression are taking an effective. .40 pay cut over what my starting wage was when adjusted.

Wow, first I've heard of that. The only drivers I've heard unhappy are the extreme "we shoulda been at $50 already" crowd.

Why?

Yeah, there are a lot of areas that could be better, there are a lot that are better than I thought would/could be. I'm still personally on the fence, but if I had to guess, they've appealed to enough of the masses to get substantial support for this contract. All a matter of how many turn out and vote.
