[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 607880, member: 14596"] I was using the net profit, which is a different beast that the operating profit. The operating profit still has costs not included, such as corporate income tax. If saying true profit is what we make AFTER we pay uncle Sam is a cynical manipulation, then I suppose that is what I did. Is someone going to try and claim that payment is optional? And, to the thread title, you should be happy to pay union dues, they are the primary reason you make more than anyone in your industry. My point is that the gap is growing, and that UPS is already not able to compete on price with competition very well. If the gap continues to grow at the rate it is, we are in serious trouble. Again, I will ask, how many good union jobs does anyone think UPS will provide when our market share gets to 0%? [/QUOTE]
