Some tech workers questioned whether UPS drivers deserved high pay — others jumped in to note the importance of the jobs and harsh working conditions.

See my comment to OP. The 170k figure is based on the end of the contract. Full time drivers will be getting minimal raises each year. The media, UPS and the Teamster’s are all bullshiting everyone. Even the AC going into trucks is bullshit. They are implementing it over the life of the contract. Most current drivers will never drive a truck with AC in their career.
It’s only a 5 year contract. Now they did only agree to put ac in brand new trucks, so yeah that’s10-20 years away. Still seems like a strong win for the union.
