UPS to freeze pension plans for nonunion staffers

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

How much does UPS match?

Zero but they do pay the administrative fees.

So it's safe to say that your a "cuddley man".

I can't touch my toes and I don't like to be touched so beat it!

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Is it that the Teamsters won't allow it or that the membership won't forgo raises to allow it?

Any match would be in lieu of, not in addition to, our pension, which is why the Union would never go for it.

And you could die at 60. So what's the point?

His wife and her new husband would be all set.

First thing we did when we moved into this house was rip up the carpet in the bedrooms. Gorgeous 100+ year old hardwood underneath, just needed a little love. Why in the world people would carpet this house is beyond me.

I have carpet throughout the living room, bedrooms and stairs (no, the carpet, which is beige, does not match the white drapes) while I have ceramic in the dining room, kitchen and both bathrooms.

Scrapping the up right now. Laid it under the cabinets too. That's when I told the wife friend it give me a sledge hammer we are getting new cabinets too.

Take a shop knife and carefully score the linoleum along the cabinets.

I have a mixture of carpet and wood and tile on 2 floors and the upstairs master is just carpet and tile.

Is that before or after the sledge hammer?

I think he is still working on the HVAC at your old house.

Nope, I assume you don't know what you're talking about anymore.
I've got the money ... you just got talk.
I've met a bunch of financial talkers like you that talked big ... they're all still working.

You've got the money...lol...ok money bags... your daughter is planning your "heartattack" as we speak....

I don't eat Popeyes much but when I go I get the 4 chicken strip meal with biscuit and jambalaya with red beans and rice....unfortunately that combo is like 12 bucks...that's good eating for fast food..

Our Popeyes is a bit greasy ... I do eat there though.
I need a red beans & rice fix at least once a month.
