The Thing About OT...

[Phenom5]

I know this pass check 11 hours OT only adds 160.00 to net pay and 300 in fed taxes

Change your withholdings. Smh everyone should be doing this.

 

[Gabba]

I love overtime.

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

I love overtime.

It's nice to a point. But working too many hours will burn you out after a while.

 

[PT Car Washer]

I love overtime.

Especially for dropping off misloads at top driver rate.

That is the easiest money you will ever make here.

Or go grab some pick up the volume off of another driver

Boss wanted me to do just that last week. After looking at the pick up volume and the deliveries he still had left, We moved his deliveries to my truck and we switched trucks.

 

[JustDeliverIt]

Or go grab some pick up the volume off of another driver

Yeah, that too. Don’t have much opportunity for that with my delivery area. Aren’t too many pick ups in my rural area.

But when I find two misloads, one for each of the routes loaded on either side of me, it’s 45-60 minutes worth of work for those. Never want to extend my days here but it’s easy money cruising around the country.

 

[Whither]

Ok, thank you. I don't think about it in that way, but I definitely understand. I personally don't give a damn about the union or the pension. I'm grateful for the nice $40/hr pay rate afforded to us but that's it. Any pension I receive will just be a cherry on top in retirement. My plan is to live off the interest of my investments in retirement which if done properly will amount to way more than the funky little $40k/yr pension. We'd all be better off with a 6% 401k match instead of the pension... I want my company to do well and to prosper. And everyone should as well.

Whatever that is it sounds like BS ,sounds like they plan to violate the contract because those sound like full-time hours.

Better than ours. Our committee sets up telematics contests. The team that wins gets breakfast burritos oh and of course everyone on the safety committee gets one also.

 

[Phenom5]

In this example you contributed 625K of your income to make the 401k worth 2.5m and $0 dollars to make the pension worth 1.25m. I like the pension return on investment much better.

You retire then the next day you die. That pension is gone. That 401k is still there and can be given to your kids.
401ks can easily be transferred and are considered to be fully liquid assets. Pension are neither and that is their biggest cons. Pensions biggest benefits are that they are heavily regulated by governmental laws. Pension are normally a lot more conservative.
Im sure UPS could match a higher number than most of us even think. I believe they could do a full 100% match. Imagine putting over 40k per yr in your 401k. You’d only need 20 years to be set.

Well if you think I'm survival benefit..,.

 

[Phenom5]

Well if you think I'm survival benefit..,.

If you take survivor benefit with the pension you get paid out at a lesser amount. Once you and your survivor dies the pension is gone and cannot be given to anyone else. 401k can get transferred over and over again. Can be put in a will or a trust as well.

Nothing wrong with having a little bit of money putting each buckets
