$375 a week missing out of your budget and you're on a fixed income - that's real money. It doesn't mean you have a spending problem. From $36,000 down to $18,000.

good luck with the union cards after the pension fund ***** all the members best thing the teamsters could do now to save money is shut down the organizing don't think anybody will be signing up now

I dont have a dog in the fight. I work at UPGF our pension is with the company. You guys just need to use your heads IF you decide to go union. If you decide not to join still use your head.

As I understand it the company still must negotiate.

Should be interesting. This is one giant mess for sure.

Just sign the cards and quit being slit tails. You all know it's the right thing to do. Have some nads for once in your life.

That makes sense ( sarcasm ) .... try to shame them into to a yes vote. My how far the union has fallen.

If Teamster Elvis wanted to shame us he should've complained that we didn't give applications and job interviews to the union recruiters.

Heard from a friend that truckload had to run it's dedicated subservice teams to Florida out of Salem IL because Laredo (their normal destination) wasn't accepting freight. Could this be retaliation by corporate for the yes vote?

$1500 per month from a pension fund is better than $0

Not when you were banking on $3000...

Does Conway have a Pension plan for you?

No Conway doesn't. But based on all of the pension letters that I've been getting from my Teamster Pension Fund (Central States Pension Fund)........neither does the Union companies.

My pension has been cut by 2/3. That's correct, I will get 1/3 of what I was promised. And the odds are that I won't even get that 1/3.

Conway employees need to throw this information back in the face of the organizers.

Central states needs fresh money. That is what is critical.

Yep. Those Central States Pension Fund meetings in Hawaii are very expensive.
And yes.......they just had one in Hawaii.......no : :shit:

Would the UAW want to organize freight? I have no confidence in the inept 'leadership' at IBT and am convinced they would squander whatever dues money they get.

You can't blame the teamsters from trying.....either Conway of FedEx could save their pension.

The five billion that UPS paid the pension funds to get their employees out of the pensions, was pissed away within a couple of years. Bill Gates' 54 billion couldn't bail the pension funds out.....since they'd **** it away within a couple of years also.

It was $6 Billion and it was gone within a year. Thats what a CSPF rep told us in a meeting last year.

So is all the Union carriers better off? Are they happier with their wages? Do they have better benefits? Im really asking, because I don't know.
