[QUOTE="Labelflipper, post: 5185911, member: 97795"] I seriously don't know what to say about the people that that have been at UPS for years and didn't receive the MRA or now the attendance bonus. I think what's going on now only affects people hired during the current contract. When I started in 2019, it was $14 per hour. I never got a bonus to be hired, and have only gotten the attendance bonus this month, after the MRA was taken away. There's so much I don't know about the people who were hired before this contract, like how much were already making in 2021, was it more than than newer people were getting hired for? And was your pay reduced, like ours, after what we were getting during peak season? One thing the Union did tell me is that we would never make less than our junior, so UPS did have to raise our pay when they were hiring new package handlers at $19 per hour 2021 peak season. It really seems like the longer you stay at a company, the starting wage for new people keeps getting higher. I was at Wells Fargo for 9 years, and even for all that time, new hires (same job classification) were hired at more than I was making in the end. Maybe that's the way it is everywhere?? [/QUOTE]
