@1fn One bill, the Obama care act, brought heath care to everyone, the big trashy bill took health care from millions so all that money could be given to the wealthy and the greedy. One day you will run out of excuses.
Yes, if history is any indication, expect mediocre raises that don't keep up with the increasing cost of living, and take-backs you'll only find out about after it's too late and the ink has dried.
@k1 ha no union power in my area …. Too many ex Comcast dish and direct people brought in that are runners and all they do is sh---y work and su-k up to management
@e8 what are you talking about …. We paid 0 until Obamacare forced a penalty on the company for a Cadillac plan health insurance…. Makes perfect sense punish a company for providing a quality insurance for its employees … that was union neg

@tm you’re just mad because you were drooped and you know it. You have no defense for the big trashy bill, you were coned. You voted for this and now You can reap what you sow. We all got sc--wed.
Re: @tn. Has absolutely nothing to do with that
They are waiting to see what ups offers the teamsters drivers for buy out. That will be a starting point. A lot of people hitting 30 this year and next
@e8 Just like Obamacare.
the international and CWA sold out their membership in 2010 and ever since they have been sitting on their hands.now its rah ,rah ,rah time.time for the membership to go to sleep.

@km Is that the same Teamsters that love Trump for some reason? They must not know that if it was up to Republicans there wouldn't even be unions.
70 dollars a week for health insurance now. It used to be free

Anyone complaining about how bad union work is should try and work nonunion like my son and find out just how bad it is for people who can’t get one .While yes not as strong as they were at one time but niether is America but still nice having some unity and a say in how the company treats us
Re @hg . What does it mean “ dropping the union”? I agree they have become useless , but they still negotiate for retirees. Do you mean not paying union dues?
As soon as we get a contract I'm dropping the worthless union..this next one will get me to the end
So, the big trashy bill will cost us more money in healthcare. Smart people have been saying this for a long time.
@d0 ty for some information
So haven't heard details about little items or pay,but Sounds like the medical/retiree medical is a sticking point.I am going to say I know its definitely holding up a big part of the negotiations.So while I won’t say it’s bad or good going its definitely not as cut and dry a done deal extension as some said way back.I have no idea on any of the other items or even what the main ones may be !! Medical in general is the big sticker item !!!Yet probably one of the most important since most are retired or most of us will be facing retirement in near future so it’s definitely on the company and union minds
Yes
lol, for real.well its kinda sad the union does not say any thing to its members.unions these days su-k
Supposedly not going well at all
So far it's been top secret nobody knows anything and the people at the meetings aren't leaking anything it's almost bizarre how tight lipped everyone is being . It's a union contract not the top secret plans of dropping an atomic bo-b !!!
