[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 736393, member: 24302"] Yeah, I was told by a mgr 7 years ago that FedEx was looking into paying mid-range employees better, that it was a top priority. It appears you've decided to explain to us simple folk the "big picture." I can cite example after example of being cheated by mgrs since being rehired, search for my posts if you are interested, not going to bore the regulars again. It's wonderful that many senior couriers make as much or more than you. Is it fair for a 3 year employee to make as much as a 20 year employee? Those 20 year employees topped out in what, 4 or 5 years? Even more senior couriers topped out in 2. And again, if the company can't afford that, why not 10? You must know people, because a 10 year employee won't top out in 10 years, period. You also need to take into account that there are 7 payscales. Raises are based on percentages, those on lowest payscale like myself will take longer because we started so much lower. I was rehired at $10.85, have watched starting pay climb while getting no adjustments myself. It will take me 25-30 years to catch top pay, but what does FedEx care? 6.8 to 7.0 raises? My mgr thinks a 6.0 is a very good raise, and he's not alone. The system is rigged, and you are an apologist for it. Top pay should be higher, and the time it takes to reach it should be shorter. Will FedEx pay us better? I'll believe it when I see it. And I've worked for Dominoe's in the past. To compare what we do with pizza deliverers is insulting. [/QUOTE]
