I don't know about you, but I gave nothing back. I did decide to work less this football season to ensure I can use my season tix. Less pay for less work is not a giveback; I hope they have this option in the next contract. Wish I could have taken off the entire season, but the boss doesn't want me home THAT much...LOL...

Know many disagree. OK with that, factually, those going on VLOA leaves under the MOU did significantly better than contract to the tune of a minimum of $2500/month not to work at UPS. MOU gives all VLOA full medical, vacation and sick bank (without having to use ART 9 to recoup. for Military crews)
Cobra would cost the average married crewmember just about $1500/month.) by law. (I know UPS self insures, but fact remans, law says have to pay COBRA, so a real cost to crews). Military crews that have routinely had military commitments did extraordinarily well financially and QOL wise under the MOU.
Also, MOU VLOA pays sick (5.5 credit hours per 28 days minimum value per junior crewmember is $680) plus vacation (1.07 days per 28 paid at minimum of 3 hours=$399 minimum). Add them up: Most junior crewmember on property earns benefits/cash of $2500/month in real dollars. Still get A plan longevity, etc. which is better than contract. So if UPS comes after pieces in 2012 where you think they will exploit, IPA can counter with same.

There you go again confusing everyone with the facts...some people have their minds made up and nothing you say will change that. I never thought ups would go for reduced guarantee lines or jobsharing...part time work for full time bennies...I guess what seems like a good deal to some is a crushing blow to the contract for others....
