[QUOTE="35years, post: 3470741, member: 60822"] Since only 15% will stay more than a year, why is the national negotiating committee focusing on better starting wages and benefits? These are people who will not be long term UPS employees, nor long term Teamsters. Yet I am repeatedly told they will be the main focus for monetary issues this contract. Yes shorten progression, yes increase pt wages, but focus on long term employees, not short term kids who will quit after 3 months anyway, at the expense of making the pensions secure and cutting forced OT. I think the Union leadership did not listen at all to our priorities, but instead sees that UPS had to sweeten the pot to attract new employees anyways, so it will be an easy "victory" to claim in this new contract. Meanwhile our pensions sink, and we work 70 hour weeks Nov. and Dec. [/QUOTE]
