[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1187113, member: 12508"] No matter what, you will be paying far less than the true market level of services rendered. This is the essence of the Ground model: "low wages, all the time." Is an Express courier worth $25 per hour or more. In my opinion, they are, because someone who actually knows what they are doing at $25 per hour is much more valuable than the 2 people you will need to hire to replace them. UPS knows this, FedEx does not. Will some of your employee be sharp enough to be good Express couriers? Certainly. Will they do it for slightly more than you are currently paying? Maybe, but not for long. Who cares about a "challenge" with zero payoff? Even if you pay them more per hour, there are still no benefits, retirement, or career track at Ground. [/QUOTE]
