[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 987092, member: 24302"] If we're talking decades there was a time where we progressed to top pay quickly, and weren't too far behind UPS. Even now, we have paid vacations, paid personal and floating holidays, paid sick days, bonuses, short and long term disability, medical coverage, retirement, and the ability to transfer. Discounts on airlines too. Comparing us with UPS isn't the same as comparing us with Ground. I think the quality of the Ground driver depends on the individual. He may have been laid off and that's all he can find but still cares about doing a good job. On the other hand having someone work 60+ hrs for a set amount with no benefits and just getting by will make many, if not most, people soon look for something better, and doesn't instill the kind of loyalty that used to be the hallmark of FedEx couriers(bleeding purple and orange). Question is if and when the economy gets better will you be able to keep your quality drivers? [/QUOTE]
