[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 867245, member: 24302"] If you have a two tiered pay system with the lower tier paying $22hr as I've heard then those guys will be making less than many of our couriers. We have 7 payscales and the topped out couriers on the lowest make almost $22hr. Of course it takes longer to get there for us but the biggest advantage UPS will have is benefits. How long will that last before they say they can't afford the healthcare or great pension? I don't buy the idea that a new, non union company will jump in if we unionized. You are talking a huge, huge investment and needing enough employees to boot. DHL couldn't pull it off. And even if Express unionized Ground wouldn't. The start of another company at this point could only happen if one of the existing companies went under and even then it would take time, not a quick jump in. [/QUOTE]
