[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1114940, member: 24302"] The problems with a merit system as I see it is managers play favorites. A guy who works really hard but isn't liked by the boss for whatever reason gets low balled on raises while the suck ups do better. Also if a minority isn't given as much it often leads to discrimination suits. In a perfect world everything would be based strictly on a courier's numbers. Have reasonable goals set for a route and the more your average productivity passes the goal the better your raise. And have auditors checking behind managers to hold them accountable for how they give raises. The problem with your union system is it protects slackers. And encourages others to make less effort due to seeing the slackers skating without consequence. Unfortunately it's a necessary evil of having a union but if companies are to thrive and provide those good union wages and benefits then everyone needs to pull together to make it so. The company's success is your success. Sadly too many just see a company as just the source of a paycheck that's there to be squeezed for every penny you can get. [/QUOTE]
