In Mexico, they call dolphin fish, "Dorardo". It translates to Golden in English. Best Tasting fish imo.

I believe you will be surprised with no increase in this weeks paycheck. Hours reported between April fools and this coming Saturday will have the raise paid out next week.
Have a nice day.

Would you rather get the raise Oct. 1.Not just any other Thursday at Express. But a Thursday in which I walk in, go upstairs, look for my check in my Managers mailbox. Open sesame. Another step increase in pay. Savour the flavor, because it will be a long 18 months until another one comes.

Just telling it like it is
Here we go again.
Would you rather have gotten a real raise in October? Or are you happy with just a bonus check???

He’s happy with whatever FedEx chooses to give him.
They gave him a spanking the other day. He was ecstatic!

I stand corrected. I could have sworn they said 26 March it goes in. No worries.

If step 10 got a raise, people would complain because they would be further away from topping out. I would rather have a raise but I understand why we didn't get 1. I will take my $1000 bonus and be happy.
People are still complaining about getting a raise now instead of October. They need to break out a calculator and see how getting a raise now is better than October. Even if you do have to wait 18 months for the next raise. Do the math.
I think people are more disappointed with the fact that jobs that were once on the cusp of being upper-middle-class are completely disappearing - affordable (free?) healthcare, profit sharing, and defined pensions are a thing of the past. Why wouldn’t your average worker be a little miserable?

Totally agree.
Would you also agree, assuming that OF is in earnest regarding his wealth, that he had a little help along the way (i.e. inheritance), despite his proclamations that his economic status is self-made?

Probably. We’ll never find out though.

Indeed I did get an inheritance. My aunt died a few years ago and she left her estate to all her nieces and nephews. I got $1700 and used it to fly my family to Disney. Had to put about another $1700 with it to have a good time.

Free healthcare? Who has that?
So you are miserable because Obama made insurance premiums skyrocket? How is that Fedex fault?
I have seen post on here about Ramp Agents making 6 figures.
Others saying couriers were close to that in certain markets with OT.
FT topped out couriers are in the 60k to 80k salary range. I would consider that upper middle class. Stay away from Starbucks and quit driving cars that cost a years salary and maybe you can live large.

What's up with everyone "mourning" the death of a loved one with a vacation to Disney?

We were going anyway. That money let us fly instead of making a 16 hr drive. You a Disney hater?

I like Disney. I just think that it sends the wrong message when we mourn someone’s death by flying the family to Orlando.
