It has been a 9 month wait and today when I got home, I got an envelope from the Teamsters pension...... WOW! I put 30 years in at UPS and was forced to retire last year because my back got so bad. MANY TIMES... I just wanted to WALK from that job...and I mean MANY!!!!
I am only 54yrs old and looking forward to a LONG and HAPPY retirement.
I know that UNIONS have mixed opinions about them by people but I want to thank the TEAMSTERS union for making my pension possible.
Alot of the people in this site are young and retirement is probably not on top of the list of priorities BUT.... It is there before you think.
Anyhow.... a 9 month back paycheck from my pension is a welcome site!
Just have to keep it from burning a HOLE in my pocket!
