[QUOTE="FedExer267, post: 794030, member: 18716"] 30% savings using FedEx over UPS the overall cost is like a 70 cent diffrence. For the diffrence however you get a professional driver who will do what he can to make you happy because he gets treated extremley well. For the people who choose cheaper services well thats exactly what they get. We dont go out of our way for anyone because bottomline we dont get paid to do so. Now bbsam may pay his guys more sure but the majority of Contractors will not, more money for them. If you are given crapwages day in and day out and now your boss wants more but does not see the need to pay more what exactly do you feel the service of that driver will be. Not too high. There are like 20 something contractors in my building out of all of them one contractor pays per piece delivered and his drivers pull in over a thousand a week. In addition he gives 2 weeks paid vacation. So his guys yes will do whatever he wants but those of us who are barely making 10 bucks a hour will not. I just dont see how a new system will work for Ground when a majority of the Contractors do not appreciate their employees. We dont want more work we dont get properly compensated for the work we do now. Like I have said before you pay me a fair days wage, give me a bonus, give me a vacation, paid holidays and I will work hard for you, if not you get what you pay for [/QUOTE]
