[QUOTE="TUT, post: 1038590, member: 29298"] Tigergirl that is my stance, this is a world/U.S. issue and not so much a Fedex one, you can't fix Fedex for the employee until there is a paradigm change to how the employer/employee rules and relations go for the country. To vote business/republican right now (even if you really like their over ideals, I actually do by definition) is just accelerating it more in their favor. Some want to say there is too much regulation, to me if "they" had their way they would accelerate their abuse on employees, thus we actually need more regulation/reform to protect the middle-working class. Learning from History will once again fail big time. The fix doesn't start until there are laws forcing companies that out-sourced to start bring jobs back (small %'s at a time) or get out of America. Because the current trajectory isn't going to work long-term. Now I also have part of me that holds the conspiracy theory that Owners are Whiners to (corporate welfare is out of control just as much as civilian welfare) and as we know these companies are sitting on record $$$, but they don't want to use it until their GUYS are in office. Then they will again spend and make their GUYS look good in an artificial way, a "do it my way or I'm taking my ball home with me" kind of way. I hate gridlock above all else. We go nowhere as a country, which is poison. That said, you have to prepare for today. Even if you don't have cash, you need to figure out how to save some and start investing yourself. It's become more apparent each day that a Job is part of your income and investing is the other, to LIVE! Currently I'm setup where my job is my income and my investment are my retirement.

I know we want to believe our jobs should be enough to pay the bills, but dammit if we don't have to acknowledge the true realities around us.
