[QUOTE="ezrider, post: 56862"] Switchoff I'm with Wily on this one. Most of that last post of yours makes some rather flimsy comparisons. UPS pilots are [i]not[/i] in the same industry as other pilots you tried to lump them in with. Our pilots play a vital and probably increasing role in sustaining "our" company's success. Anybody in the sales or production operations at UPS has to know that air and intl. pkgs are huge chunks of the revenue pie and without it UPS would very likely be a much smaller company paying smaller wages to most everybody working for it. As for what corporate executives from the top 200 "successful" companies are pulling in, that largely revolves around one's definition of the word. Watching some stuffed shirt like Michael Eisner try to justify tens upon tens of millions of dollars in compensation while Disneyworld charges $60 for a family breakfast while not keeping the restrooms properly cleaned and sanitized would lead me to believe that he wasn't worth what he was collecting. And he was not even close to being the worst offender of the corporate boardroom excess that's become way to common in today's America. If the board has enough money to vote themselves a 7% payhike for the likes of overpaying for a company like OVERNITE or pie-in-the-sky fantasy projections of cost-savings from mistake-ridden fiascos like EDD to Wall Street analysts, then the pilots deserve thier share of the pie as well seeing as they actually [i]have[/i] delivered the goods for us all.
