[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1357252, member: 24302"] The problem is that FedEx didn't keep their promises to us, selling us out for their own enrichment. But they aren't unique in dropping the traditional retirement plan for a 401k and/or cash balance plan along with minuscule raises. And of many companies doing so they tend to start employees at better pay because no one would stick with it if they can get much easier jobs for similar pay. You are just beating your head against a wall wishing they'd do better when they can hire many off the street who can be trained to do what you do. It really is supply and demand. You say it's defending them, I say it's the harsh reality out there. The only way we'll see substantially better raises is to get a business friendly administration that will encourage investment by the wealthy and grow the economy. When employers compete for workers wages go up. [/QUOTE]
