[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 978467, member: 23516"] I'm saying nothing of the sort. I'm saying no one is owed much of anything. Well I don't know what to tell you. Express has taken some pretty strong measures in recent years to remain competitive and profitable in a terrible economic climate. The result of all of that work is to maintain a 5% net profit margin. A guy may think that his employee deserves $40/hour for what he does but if the math doesn't justify it, he's not going to get it. Period. There will always be disagreement over how it *should be, but I try to play my cards based on how things are and make the best of it. If it's possible to do things the way you want them done and keep the margin of profit growing at the same time, go to Memphis and show them. They'd promote you in a heartbeat and the only money problems you'd have would be trying to figure out how to spend all of it. [/QUOTE]
