Serta,
Maybe up there they do, but in the Central it's 54.400.....just doublechecked my pay stub. You guys can use the little extra with the high cost of living in the Northeast. What Supplement are you under?
 
Thanx gentalmen for the comparison . As far as I am concearned we are getting screwed. I truely think this company wants us to go union. Just my opinion. they can offer to small package but we (UPSF)suck, is this it, if they think so little of us to offer nothing in bennies, then what will they think of us when we truely work for them?. And that has'nt started yet!!!! When senior mgnt goes for a ride then we will find out.

My new jobclass is "Freight Redundancy Specialist".

This Person will have the ability
to tolerate mentally challenged dispatchers
who excell in the art of ignorance redundancy,
and can withstand driving 18 wheelers at
top end speeds in circles
 
Gentalmen I am sorry ,but most of the non union posts in this web site crave no sustinance. If there were any more holes in most of these statements posted by people whom think the company is looking out for thier best benifit, these people in time have another thing coming. People have been so lax in O that they are thinking it will not change. TIME WILL TELL, THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT FOOLING ANYBODY BUT THEMSELVES. AND THERE HAS'NT BEEN A PERSON YET WITH THIS WAIT AND SEE ATTITUDE THAT CAN TELL ME THE OUTCOME THUS FAR IS BETTER. And I am not yelling.

Easy there killer!! I just don't feel the love either. Kinda the calm before the storm. The "O" and "MC" Country Club has closed down due to poor management. No more drinks allowed on the patio. As a matter of fact, no cell phones either.
 
FINALLY....just finished completing the Benefits Enrollment for our family. Looks like we will be paying @ 15.00 less each payperiod.
 
i cheep-oed in the past and i payed for it in the long run. the good coverage is expensive. i am not taking any more chances. some things you have no controle over. OR DO YOU
 
Looks like it will be @ $57.00 per week for family coverage of medical, dental, vision and supplemental life insurance. This also includes LTD, and AD&D on Kevin. It also includes basic life insurance of @ $80,000.00 on Kevin.

This does not include the amount for cancer insurance from AFLAC. I haven't had a chance to review it yet. But considering where we live, there is no way we will decline any cancer policy!
 
Good one Web....

I am comparing it to the total amout we are curently paying for all of the benefits (medical, dental, vision, life, LTD). I can't give you an exact amount the difference is for each one, since they are using a formula to calculate the total amount for the year of the benefits, then give you a certain credit, depending on your family status and then dividing it by 52 weeks to get your weekly total. I hope I didn't completely confuse you.

I suspect the dollar amount will differ from person to person. Still not free.

This does not include cancer insurance?
You have medical right?
They are making you pay more for specific diseases?
So how much extra for this insurance and how does it compare to the old plan. You say you are saving 15 per week, how much is the extra medical for cancer?

Also it it limited to the type of cancer you can get and be treated for under the plan?
 
You have to pay more for cancer insurance?:duh: That sounds kinda dumb. Never heard of such a thing. Well I guess if I had to buy it I would, it isn't cheap to pay for those procedures. Ex wife had thyroid cancer 7 yrs ago, and it cost almost 30k at that time. (only $212 out of pocket expense for the tv and phone). But thats my insurance.

By the way Valerie, thanks for the info, seems your one of the very few that atleast give some look into the difference of benies.
