Why doesn’t the Union publish this in their news letters? Should make carriers sit up and take notice of how their union works.

They should have done like our Managers , that is become management and embezzle legally, by lying about everything to boost the “Incentive Raises”, they are just as bad if not worse.

Big T youre an idiot!! Guess you’ve never compared the bottom line of your check with your Manager’s…I’m sure your paycheck blows theirs away!!
3% to me a YEAR is not that much of an incentive raise for all the hours I work!
