I'm currently trying to pick a job and having a hard time deciding, probably will just pick whichever job gets me through the process fastest as I'm tired of being idle.
Some of the jobs are teamster union so I was wondering about the pension that they offer, everything I've ever read says that the teamsters pension is basically insolvent and will run out of money around 2025. So I was wondering if that was an actual perk or is it going to be like social security, something that I pay for that I will probably never see?

Interesting, thanks for the links. I wonder if this passed yet or for how long this will help?
A taxpayer-funded pension bailout is unprecedented, according to The New York Times. Past failed attempts to aid insolvent pensions proposed to offer 30-year loans to the plans, not a multibillion-dollar check.LtlAnonymous and Bean Jr. Thank this. - Stimulus Package Includes $86 Billion Bailout for Union ...

So basically unless the company goes bankrupt, you won't lose it? I thought they had a general fund based upon whichever union you were under.Dennixx Thanks this.

I worked for private carriers whose employees were represented by the union. We never wanted union pension or health care and benefits were negotiated as part of the contracts.
The first two were bought out but pension benefits remained.Lonesome Thanks this. -
