I think if it was 6.2% that memo wouldn't have been tossed. That's over $1000 for most full time couriers.

Our station hasn't said anything yet. Due to the fact that our management isn't managing anything

 

[It will be fine]

I don't understand how giving everyone a random bonus and a raise this year fits into the Profit Improvement Plan at express. The profit margin was only 2% for express in FY14, and that's with aggressive cost cutting. I wouldn't hold your breath.

Same here.


I take that back. There are a few things being managed..... Poorly.

Excessive turnover.

A one time taxed bonus of $200 is going to make a perceptible difference? I think most people on the fence would be more insulted by that then getting nothing.

Exactly, now you get it.

Anything under 1500 would be a slap in many of our faces.

Some people can be bought with donuts and bagels. They'd be ecstatic over $200.

And those are exactly the kind of people the company wants to stay.

The 6th grade math is strong in this thread.

Careful...Code43 might call YOU a bad name, too.

Part time employee isn't obligated to stay and work longer than their posted schedule. Full time doesn't have to stay either, because no one is home to watch the kids.. pick up the kids.. pick up the wife etc. Any employee asked to work for less pay, will opt to just go home.

I suggest you research the new and updated policy regarding part timers being required to work past their schedule. Per notice posted at my station, part-timers are required to document another job, child or parent care, school, etc., to now be exempt from being "drafted" for up to an additional 2 hours per shift based on operational needs. Be careful about invoking your part time status!

The official notice reads .62%. BUT, DON'T FORGET, you are being paid 8 hours for NOT working Saturday Independence Day!

You know what. My mistake. I'm a big enough person to admit when I'm wrong. I Apologize.

My salty, RTD pal confirms. It is coming before the end of the month and it is a little more than half a percent. Which for me is about 195$ Now I would never turn down cash, but if this is in lieu of even a 2% bonus in October, I must admit I will be pretty bummed.

Not a word about this at my location. Was this notice signed? Was it by someone higher up like Memphis HR?
