I still can't get an answer from you pension hounds.

How much do you think you should have in a pension after 4 years? Enough to retire? Do you think someone can work at a union outfit for 4 years and retire with $3500 a month?

You guys need to get realistic about your demands.

Is this a trap? Can I answer you or are you going to ban me or give me infractions if I do?

All though I'm not a genius like you are I am smart enough to know it should be worth more than 64 bucks a month.

No not 4 yrs. But if a driver spends 30 years here that's what should be expected.
 
I guess that I must have been foolish to plan for my own retirement and not to count on a fixed amount. I don't believe that SSI will even be there in another 12 years when I can do the Johnny Paycheck thing.:19:

Don't be so obtuse. Follow the few simple rules and you'll be fine.

If you only knew how many times I've typed out a post only to erase it and move on. I have more rules than you.

When I hired in at WML there was no pension and the same I believe when all of the old farts hired in at AF too. ( yes I'm a old fart too) We all knew what we were getting into. Besides when you don't expect anything you won't be disappointed when you don't get anything.

Now the guys in who work at YRC that are at retirement age and YRC has not made much of a payment in the last how many years now that's F.U. that was a agreed to benefit.

I work at UPSF and at my barn every Road Driver is in the union but there are some P&D drivers that are not in the union and a just a couple of part time guys are in. Its business as usual at our barn for the most part everybody work together whether u in the union or not. The people not in the union pay no dues and union still have to represent them. They can't come to any of the union meetings. So that's something to think about and also they still get a pension the nonunion guys.
