[QUOTE="Brown287, post: 1940295, member: 14940"] Unless you live in the BayArea you have no idea what the true cost of living is. Besides the costs we also have a very robust economy with an extremely high employment rate. Not to mention cities like San Francisco and San Jose all have their own minimum wages that are far above the national norm. So this all together can spell disaster for companies like FedEx that have designed their model around low wages. We are currently paying our helpers almost $15hr plus overtime plus a $100 weekly bonus for showing up everyday. From what I know that's more than FedEx Ground drivers wage. To top that off we have a charter bus bring employees from outlying areas to the BayArea hubs just so we can be fully staffed. So you can start to see the issue here. So if UPS has to do this and offer this pay to stay staffed I can only imagine that FedEx would need to do the same. [/QUOTE]
