[QUOTE="fedx, post: 5194607, member: 64891"] You say Smith doesn't have to pay industry leading wages because he knows most people only stay a year or two, but people only stay a year or two because of the low wages. It's a catch 22. He's cutting his own throat losing workers over low pay. If he paid more, he'd have loyal employees instead of employees being a revolving door at Express. The only way out of this rut we're in is to unionize. Some companies don't need a union (because they are good places to work), but FedEx isn't one of them. Look how successful UPS is and they're union. If we did unionize, you'd see a lot happier employees and employees who are more loyal, because they'd be making a lot more money and they'd have career jobs. So let's keep encouraging Fred to merge Express and Ground stations, because eventually the company is going to be considered as one company and not two separate companies. Last mile optimization along with sharing facilities is going to get rid of Fred's RLA protection at some point. [/QUOTE]
