If you’re paying anyone less than 15 an hour

[OrioN]

So where'd you head to for the $15+ after you left UPS?

Probably Amazon warehouses... They're paying more than the competition in my region.

I'm kinda content at being out on the road for now with my current FXG subcontractor... but dunno if I finally see the light and will move on.

Heck, I didn't deposit my paychecks for the past 2 months; they're just sitting in a shoe box!

as shutting down my medical insurance at my "9-5" along with my wife shutting hers down will net us an extra grand a month.

Holy Crap, that's a lot of $$$ just for insurance... How messed up are you?

I haven't seen a real doctor for years... just a DOT card & eyeglasses every 2 years

Now you are overpaid and lazy

not the first time I’ve been called that lol

 

[sailfish]

I remember working for $8 and being proud of my job..lazy millennials!

$8 and proud? Well I know who I'll be extending an offer to.

$8 was the starting inside starting wage going back to the mid 80's

Mid 80's? And they started me at $8.50 in 2013. Thanks, Teamsters.

I could play a kazoo with my ass and negotiate a better wage.

$15/hr is the bottom. This is not 1974 anymore,

Get a FT job

The part-time wages haven't kept up over the years like a full-time wages

Ya think??

 

[sailfish]

Hell, if the inside wage went up proportionately, I probably would've said friend* driving and lived off of twenty hours a week.

It makes me feel proud to be the laziest driver!...the runner/gunners look so tired when they come take stops off me

Well the minimum is now $14 at UPS so we aren't that far off.
My only gripe is that I have almost two years of seniority and am still making the starting wage.

Keep voting yes on those contracts

I'll be long gone by the time the next one comes around.

 

[Brownslave688]

The medical alone more than makes up for it. I can't wait for my benefits to kick in....as shutting down my medical insurance at my "9-5" along with my wife shutting hers down will net us an extra grand a month. Have to look at the "big" picture versus that "per hour" number.

I was gonna come here and say well everyone at probably makes $15+ in benefits alone.

 

[Sissy Brown Short Shorts]

expect horrible quality and turnover. It’s 2020.

When you pay your employees less than 15, you are not paying them a living wage.

Treat people with some respect and maybe you’ll get some in return

Aspire to something more than a job that pays less then 15$ an hour.
