Dirt,
Got my pay stub right here. I have 80/20 coverage at 45.69 bi-weekly. Times 26 equals
1187.94 for a family of five

Like I said I don't know about yours but I just checked mine also and that is what it cost me $3400.00 last year. I got mine off of my W-2 for the whole year.

The question that keeps coming up is: Why did the company come to us?

The only answer I can come up with is that they wanted/needed something from us.

Joe,

they came to us because WE have something they want.. just like District Force (TR) union official said pages ago

UA will not entertain a merger with the CIC in OUR contract. Uncle AL is going to have to dig a little deeper in his pockets

to get his GOLDEN parachute (HIS OWN CIC LANGUAGE) to trigger.

Oops!
Magic,
Employee only coverage would be as follows:
80% coverage for FT is 30.mo
90% 65/mo
100% 96/mo

I have 80% family coverage at 99/mo........I do nont know what West gets coverage wise, rates, etc....But this isn't as bad as what has been portrayed on these boards.

Good God that's expensive. Single HMO is $5.50/check. $3 copay for visits, $15 for urgent care, and $25 for specialists. Perscription coverage is 7/14/40. My surgery broke down like this:
$3 initial visit
$15 urgent care for Drs note (forgot to get one)
$25 for gastro specialist
$25 for surgeon (including initial visit, surgery, and followups)
$100 for anastesologist (damn sure can't spell that one)
$7 for hydrocodone

Grand total of $175 for surgery. Oh, and I got short term disability too. Had I been on the East contract it would have cost a fortune and NO STD. East insurance SUCKS ASS!

You can add about another $1000 to $1200 a year for medications. I also am forced to get what is called "maintance" medications through the mail. What a pain in tha a$$ that can be.

 

[JoeDirt]

Family doctor office visit is a $25 dollar co-pay

 

[orioleman]

neci,
"$7 for hydrocodone"

I'll give you 10.00 bucks a piece.



mod note: will get back on topic. just trying to lighten things up . please no cornfield.....

You are one funny bird!!!!

[JoeDirt]

Anyone that wants to see what the insurance rates are look on page #135 of the CBA

If you don't have a copy of the CBA send me a PM. I have it in Adobe PDF format and will gladly send it to you.

ALL FLEET MEMBERS, PLEASE READ & POST.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The below, is the bylaw language that indicates the current AGC pay scale.
Please note the top out is $97,746.96 annually!

In addition please read and understand the last paragraph. Simply put, If we accept this agreement, they (AGC’s) stand to receive another raise, equivalent to our increase from the ratification of this agreement.

Now… ask yourself this question…what incentive would an AGC have to not promote this piece of crap T/A? They will benefit to the tune of $8,000.00 more annually on top of their current pay if we vote YES!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Article IX, Section 2, Paragraph B

b For the faithful performance of their duties, each Assistant General Chairman shall receive the following monthly salary rate, effective 01-01-06:

First six (6) months' service $7,988.24
Second six (6) months' service $8,066.27
Thereafter $8,145.58

The above salaries shall be increased each January 1st by a percentage equal to the percentage increase in weighted average hourly earnings on a union-wide basis.

Is it any wonder that US Airways has been in and out of bankruptcy??? Just read the brilliance of the no posters here. You are all lucky that AWA stepped in and saved your jobs......and you all wouldn't even have the opportunity to be making more money with this TA till your BK contract expires.... and add a year to that for stalled negotiations....so you wouldn't be looking at anything better till probaly 2011. And if trends continue with the economy and oil, US Air is not gonna be making huge profits.....stock is down to $6.84.....so you could be holding out for less than what this TA is offering. Oh, wait we have the CIC......that was a slam dunk last time wasn't it?.....Oh, we'll win it this time.....we'll show 'em.....(jeez, get a clue!) Oh, we are gonna merge with United, they need fleet to do it.....right!, they are so scared of fleet and our big bad CIC.... Stop with all the gambles and speculation.....you already did that once and lost. Now we all have a second chance to bring everyone to pay parity and raise our stadard of living by voting yes....phl and clt can make ammends to their class 2 cities by voting yes and at the same time get a little extra for themselves that may or may not be there in the future. Don't vote on rumor and speculation and guesses.....vote on the fact that this is a raise that is coming early for the east and long overdue for the west. If you do the math a top end east guy is throwing away close to a guaranteed $10,000 over the next 2 1/2 years that you will never see with a no vote. Don't be so anxious to try and squeeze every last penny out of the company .. you could be pricing yourself out of a job either through outsourcing or another bankruptcy that the east guys are so good at helping their company get into. Leave the anger and past bitterness behind and take the raise and vote yes while the money is still there to be had. Never heard of people passing up more money during rough economic times.....think.
