[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1084447, member: 42270"] Rudy has a great point here as does PT Car Washer.. from a labor management perspective, the corporate negotiation team has been doing the company a grave disservice by not raising starting pay since the 1980's. Attendance in my hub ([b]especially[/b] in the inbound/outbound) is atrocious - a lot of kids simply don't want to put up with production harassment (especially in the summer months) for bull[IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG] pay ($8.50/hr that gets bumped up to [b]12.87[/b]/hr after [b]four years[/b]) and no benefits for a full year. Coupled with the wait to go full time (which is at least 15 years if the person is able to qualify for a CDL, significantly higher if they want a 22.3 position) it causes headaches for the company. The only thing that has driven down turnover at my hub is the awful job market - pre-2007, new hire turnover was well over 60%. You get what you pay for. [/QUOTE]
