[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 2065941, member: 24302"] A lot of us work in areas with much lower pay and little overtime outside of Christmas. A lot of us remember when we had much better benefits and watched the company strip them to the nub. We were promised a lot of things like a good retirement pension if we stayed with the company. Fact is, and I hope you avoid this in your life, when you are lied to over and over you get angry, and you complain. I've had years where I worked more than 40 Saturdays as a 6th day and yet the most I ever made in a year was $48k. Working next to people making $5-$6hr more than you for 15 years and not even getting to the halfway point of the pay range is discouraging. You may like your mgr's, I've worked for a few good ones, but I've also worked for many who were not only jerks but some were abusive, some a shade off being crooks. The fact is between the lies the company told, the B.S. and abuse from mgr's, the stress of dealing with angry coworkers(and customers), trying to make ends meet, and humping in all kinds of weather(if you're on the West Coast you might not be familiar with horrendous weather) it's a wonder many of us stuck with it. And I hope it'll always be good for you. [/QUOTE]
