[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 515253, member: 12508"] Whatever. You can distort whatever I said however you wish. Please notice that I did acknowledge that UPS drivers generally work harder, OK? Also, you've been gone from Fred's funhouse for awhile, so your input needs to be evaluated from a non-current perspective. The quote above means nothing. Maybe your area is "easy". The UPS guys in my area bust their butts every single day. I have never said UPS is "easier", nor ever made allusions along those lines. And I have worked for UPS before, as a peak feeder driver and on package cars, so I do know something about the job. Here's my point, and I'll spell it out for you and italicize it so you can understand it. [I]Given the pay and benefits disparity between the 2 jobs (package car driver vs. FedEx courier), the differences are not that great if you consider all factors involved. [B]That means that UPS drivers do work harder (in general), but relative to overall compensation, there is not that much difference in the jobs.[/B][/I] Here is a another version so you can grasp it. [B][I]FedEx drivers are underpaid relative to their counterparts at UPS. Your work is not worth the 10-12 dollars (or more, counting retirement and other benefits) premium received over and above the pittance we receive here at FedEx.[/I][/B] Do I need to get flashcards now, or do you finally understand what I'm trying to say?
