[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 556227, member: 12508"] I'm going to try and increase your intelligence about FedEx a bit, OK? If you're a 6 year employee, that puts you about halfway up the wage scale, right? So, you'll finally top-out in another 6 years or so. Sound good? I'm guessing you're right around $18.00 per hour right now, depending on your market level, of course. ZOWEE, Batman!!!That's some BIG money! If you ever get injured or sick, those same wonderful and supportive managers you mention will turn on you in a heartbeat because you've gone from "asset" to "liability" in the eyes of the company. They are going to do everything possible to get rid of you, not because they don't like you, but because that's company policy. Just ask anyone who has been seriously hurt on the job. They probably had to hire an attorney just to keep their position. Don't believe me? Wait and see. In 1998, I made $52,000 as a FT Courier in a major market. In 2008, I made $44,000 in that same market. What does that say about the way FedEx has kept up with the cost of living? It was about the same in 2007, [I]before the recession.[/I] Do you ever plan on retiring? If you hired-in 6 years ago, you have 12% under the old plan, and then got converted to the PPP on 6-1-08. Under the PPP you'll get what....about $25 per month, and about $500 per year in cash value? WOW!! Oh yeah, you're PT, so it would be even less. So, if you want to continue being a clueless tool for Fred, please be my guest. You'll "bust your butt" for him, and then someday you'll blow-out your knee and the company will smack you down hard for all of your dedication and hard effort. Like I said before, FedEx loves lemmings like you who give their all every day and then willingly jump off the cliff when Fred says "boo". Use your brain for thinking, not following. [/QUOTE]
