[QUOTE="toeknee2gx, post: 254644, member: 7958"] So right...the 2nd part of Generation X (1975-1985) and Now generation Y (1985-1995) dont care about benifits. The benifits idea was great when Kids were leaving home at 18 getting married at 22 and raising kids at early ages. Now kids stay at home while in college and have a hard time surviving because of the job market and cost of living. Marriage rates are dipping and so is the family at young age idea. The bottom line is they want more "greenback". Some of you think they dont deserve it because you have an "I did it so they have to earn their stripes the same way mentaltiy" which I understand, but you need to look at the big picture. They dont value the same things that you did at that age. The majority will go to Fed_EX express and make 13 bucks an hr w/ less work or starbucks, lowes, home depot, costco, TSA etc etc to get paid more and do less. And contrary to popular belief, alot of these employers are now offering the same full benfits to their part timers too. They just pay more to make it more attractive. And in the meantime, we continue to loose great people to the competition. Its easy for many of you to say what is enough money when youre making 60-70k a year...Yet you want increases every year while PT'ers stay the same... FREAKIN OIL IS 86 dollars a barrel NOW!! 8.50 x 3-5hrs a day will be gas money only soon...:lol: [/QUOTE]
