[QUOTE="KoennenTiger, post: 3598001, member: 73154"] Great but ups does all those things with the profits we make and then give "raises" to the top 1% ownership class every single year while simultaneously spouting off ridiculous crap about how they can't afford to continue paying us a middle class wage. It's baloney. Meanwhile the working conditions are so bad that even with our slightly above average wage (seriously the Frito lay delivery guy on my route makes $32 an hour, gets AC, doesn't work in the elements, and is treated better) that UPS can't even hire enough drivers to fill the positions we have now without any weekend delivery at all. They can't staff the part timers, they can't staff the full timers, so clearly the market is speaking. Give better working conditions/better pay to the workers and gasp the poor poor top 1% who own stock for a living will have to 'suffer' with a smaller dividend increase. [/QUOTE]
