[QUOTE="Livin the Dream?, post: 553155, member: 21891"] On the contrary - it is perhaps a perfect example of clear capitalism at work; play by the existing rules, have all employee positions filled, and have money left over. Contrary to popular belief, the main reason for a business to operate is to make the most return on investment for the owner(s) / shareholders. EVERYTHING else is secondary. Being fair to employees is a footnote - rather, being fair to employees, if it helps the bottom line, becomes an issue. In a Union shop, being fair to employees means nothing, and does nothing for the bottom line. It is free-market canceled - pay is set in a little book based on time elapsed. In the real world, the fair pay rate is very easy to determine - whatever number that brings in enough employees to fill all the positions. FedEx has found that number. It is truly "if you don't like it, leave, we'll take the next person in line", which truly is the way a business should be run. In an economy such as what we are in now, pay for employees should stay stagnant, even decrease. This is a fact, not an opinion. There are far more people looking for jobs than jobs available. Supply & demand. [/QUOTE]
