    36% raise and a return to traditional pensions.

    Riiight. Mexico is about to get some more auto plants.

      I saw one UAW worker interviewed who was complaining that her salary was "capped" at $25/hour. Being a new hire (<4 years) she's subjected to that limitation, whereas others, with more seniority, are not. I have no idea if that's true, and I'm too lazy to look into it, having just awaked from a nice nap.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Between this and the new contract negotiated for UPS drivers, it seems we are watching the gradual equalization of white and blue collar job pay.

        Education is extremely important.

          That cap was probably negotiated by her Union…

              And $25 per hour = $52K a year before overtime. So a wage that’s pretty damn close to mean in the state and without a college degree and the debt that comes with it…

                      Totally understandable. But I mean look just be careful. This is the internet. You can't go 'round having grammar problems and shit.
