[QUOTE="dudebro, post: 3486563, member: 11234"] As a management person, I don't think there is any valid argument against this statement. Here's what Jim Casey thought on wages: 1) "We must be prepared to pay high wages." (p 35 of the legacy book) 2) "We cannot hope to get more than we give. Even if there were no labor unions to demand it of us, it would be our duty to pay our people fairly, even liberally, and treat them decently in every other respect". (p 89). That still applies today. 100,000 feeder / package drivers, 2,000 hours a year, is 200 million dollars. A dollar raise for every FT employee would cost about 1/24th of our profit. Raises are affordable, and where Amazon / FDX drivers are making less, well, that doesn't mean our drivers don't deserve it. It means theirs deserve a raise. [/QUOTE]
