10 years ago when our stock went public and split, several management people in my building became millionares on paper.
I got a $.65 per hour raise, per the labor agreement.
I didnt complain. I got what I was entitled to, while my management team was rewarded for the risks they took and the career choices they made.
Now that the worm has turned, I'm still not complaining...but I dont want to hear any whining from the former millionares, either. They are simply seeing the other side of the coin that they chose to flip.
IMHO the job of a CEO is to lead by example. I have very little respect for the example that Scott Davis is choosing to set. The pay raise he granted himself is quite literally coming out of the pockets of the people beneath him.
The example he is setting is that he is getting compensated to a level way below what his peers in other companies make while his company pays the back bone of its work force WELL above what their peers (bad word actually, UPS drivers have no peers) in other companies make. Why would you have no respect for that example?
and just IMHO, sober, from my experience there really seems to be little to no humble in any of your opinions
