[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 1188778, member: 18225"] Sounds good to me, this is how all workers should be treated. We have this 'package' because we are represented by a strong Union, a dying scenario in the USA. Are there politics involved? Absolutely! You seem to have a hang-up about the compensation package for FT drivers. As a FT driver, I will tell you, quite frankly, that I earn every single penny that I'm paid. UPS is certainly an anomaly in this day and age, vis-a-vis the symbiotic Union/corporate relationship, highlighted by our very generous compensation package. Yet UPS is still on top ([I][SIZE=1][B]these Fed-ex guys are a joke[/B][/SIZE][/I])...how could this be? The current UPS/Union relationship is a holdover, or an after-image of a time (Jim Casey?) when Unions and corporations worked together. Lately, it's just $$$$, shareholder concerns, global initiatives, NASDAQ, etc. Now if we just had single-payer in this country...(sorry, wrong thread...). [/QUOTE]
