I am thinking of quitting New Penn. Is there any special way that you have to do it being a union employee ? Much thanks for any info.
yes that is the right thing to do. Once you quit you may have other thoughts about the whole issue.use your sick days personal days vacation days to try out the new job before you quit . put the longest date you can meaning use up all your time plus a couple more days then date it for that .used up time. you'll never know
HEY TM !
We just had 2 guys from New Penn approved for employment here at ABF. They claim their tired of the bull ::::!
Hell yea, that used to be the cream of the crop. Late model equipment and all. Now they pull old Red Star trailers around, get a pittance contributed to their pensions and they are probably still the premium cash cow of the conglomerate while all their efforts go towards bonuses for the upper echelon. I don't understand how they can go to work each way and give a good conscientious day's work for it all.They ruined New Penn too?
I'm in the New England pension fund and we were told that it is on the rebound and in pretty good shape with no changes coming for current and future participants.luckily we're not a stand alone fund like a lot of them are.Were 5 states strong.We also have a new hybrid fund that old and new employers can get into with no withdrawal liability to them.The catch is they still have to pay down the old liability on the old fund over X amount of years while making contributions in the new one.What that does is gives the underfunded one a shot in arm which is needed!The other thing I forgot to mention is that under the new pension plan the negotiated rate that the employer agrees on will never change. It's a win win in my opinionAfter last weekends union meeting
With guys being told how bad the pension fund-is I am sure more will follow in Jersey
