Labeling someone does not strengthen your argument. Sorry to see that you had to go there. But I digress.....
You mentioned that your wife "has done very well for herself in the medical profession". How would she feel about forgoing pay raises and leveling out the pay scale so the janitor can make better money or the nurses aids that average 10-12 an hour? I am sure, if you were honest, would say No, she worked hard to get to where she is. She has made sacrifices to accomplish her achievements and salary. Most drivers have made the sacrifices to get what we get.
That argument makes no sense. A janitor or nurse aid does not have the ability, education or certification to do what my wife does. At UPS we're all just moving boxes in one shape or form. I'm every bit capable to do a driving job, there are just no full time opportunities. Sacrifices? Really? Most full time drivers in my building did not wait even close to as long as we do these days. 50 percent less(since you love percentages), at the very worst, and with the current rate of promotions or lack there of that will only go up.
As far as labeling, what about your passive aggressive comment where you ASSumed you make more money and pay more taxes than me or my family. Yet you're talking about me labeling you. Interesting logic you have there.
