[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 876944, member: 22880"] Oh please... The worst you can throw at UPS is that your husband didn't get his going away party during his actual last week and his manager didn't remember to present him with his plaque for years of service. Sour grapes don't make a compelling argument for Express being such a better place for a career compared to UPS. You definately enjoyed the benefits of that income your husband made while he worked at UPS. Had your husband been an Express Courier for all that time, would your lifestyle have been any different? Of course it would've - your husband would've been bringing in about 75% of what he did with UPS (since he started in 1976, he would've topped out rapidly with Express, so his overall compensation compared to UPS wouldn't have been short changed as much had he started much later). "They may make good money"... Well, hate to break the news, but Express treats its people rather poorly too - or hadn't you noticed? So, if you know you are going to be treated poorly, what do you do? Take the job the pays or take the job that pays less. Tough decision.... I guess a free hamburger and soda every once and awhile make up for the poor wages. I guess you do believe that "FedEx Cares". There are some like you in every station, I bet Fred wishes he had about 25,000 more - his problems would be solved. [/QUOTE]
