[QUOTE="noway, post: 681246, member: 25008"] [FONT=Tahoma][FONT=Tahoma]You got to be kidding me if you think management should just be happy that they did not take a pay cut. There is more to it than what happened in 2009. Management has been seeing a steady decrease in their total compensation for the past five years. Changes to MIP, Decreases in benefit coverage and smaller raises. There are several problems here. One the company no longer cares about its management people and two they are falling in to the same rut that most union companies fall into. The company is in trouble.

The only thing we got going for us is that most of our jobs can’t be shipped overseas. FedEx will be bigger than us within the next five years. With our increased costs more companies will find alternatives, whether is it using a competitor or starting their own delivery fleet. The CEO and the Union President will be the only ones guaranteed to keep making more money. Argue if you want the cuts in management’s numbers and pay are just the start.
