My bad. Express is lucky to have you.
dunno, maybe cuz it might be the right thing to do...you know, pay someone a fair day's wages for a fair day's work?...but hey, who does the right thing anymore?...it's so out of style
I think we all know the definition of the word.Define "fair".

It's sounds like you know how to do the right thing anyway (you'd make a really lousy Ground contractor)
If bbsam can get quallified applicants willing to work for the wage that he is willing to pay why in the world would/should he pay more?
Easy for a shill libertarian protected by the teamsters union contract to say.
Let's say you are a contractor with 3 drivers each earning $15/hr who each work 2,000 hours per year. 3*15*2000=$90,000. Bump the hourly wage to $20/hr----3*20*2000=$120,000. "Doing the right thing" just cost you $30K---are you OK with that?

Define "fair".
As far as doing the right thing, I am going to blow my own horn here for a second. My preloader loads 3 pkg cars. This past Peak we all gave him a tip. The other two drivers each gave him $50 while I gave him $100. Yes, I knew what they were going to give him as we had talked about it before hand. The kid works hard and I felt he deserved $100. It also felt good to show up the other drivers. The tip has paid off ten-fold as he has stepped up his game big-time.
In all my years at FedEx I have never seen a card much less a union representative. I live in a very anti labor state.
Show me the card and I will sign in a heartbeat. One lesson FedEx taught me over the years is the value of union representation.
I think Fred must be kicking back some cash to make The Teamsters ...go away .They are always trying to get new members. I dont know why thay are not going crazy to get Fedex signed on!!!!!I have never heard of or seen teamsters anywhere. Never.
that's just the way internet trolls get their jollies. They get their kicks out of infiltrating groups in which they truly know nothing about, and endlessly espousing their "wisdom", constantly cajoling and belittling, making blanket statements and getting in their little digs and jabs in the hopes of getting under peoples' skin. There is just no end to them. I've just come to accept them as part of this "new world" (you know - that same world we've been told we must now embrace). They're also the same folks who write for Wikipedia.
Those who have never sat on our side of the fence will just never get it. They think we're a bunch of whiners who somehow have gotten what we so richly deserve. After all, we are the "underperforming" opco at FedEx - as though it's somehow our fault.
