[QUOTE="'Lord Brown's bidding', post: 1154531, member: 32753"] Why is that a problem? Ever hear "A happy worker is a productive worker"? If the PTmers were comfortable in their earnings, and could make a living based off of it, they'd be less-inclined to [I]not [/I]show even a hint of enthusiasm for their job; a large problem with the loads, crappy trips pkgs take through the system, etc. has to do with feeling they are not being properly compensated for the job; when I first left UPS, despite the pressures and maltreatment I had received from some, I [I]loved[/I] the job. In my exit interview, my main gripe was the very-low pay. In my case, UPS literally lost me to another employer, and I had a good work ethic and was reliable in my attendance; often times UPS "loses" employees because even though they are on the payroll, for all intents-and-purposes they have "left the building", either due to being highly unreliable in attendance/tardiness, or because they become very ineffective. Trust me, if not another PTmer cared to get promoted due to a high-satisfaction and contentment with their wages, there won't be a problem filling the drivers' ranks; my father, a postal employee, currently works with several who have Masters-and Doctoral degrees, but make less than half I do.
