[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 5106262, member: 63706"] Ok, I think I understand. He thinks pay should be proportional to risk of bodily injury. He's also upset that new guys start out way higher than when he started. I think he thinks the government should pay us to drive our own personal cars on our own time because that comes with risk too (maybe I misunderstood). My two cents: if you look at the actual numbers for risk of bodily injury, comparisons between industries, and adjust for local market conditions, UPS is probably ok, just my guess though. As for new guys making more than when you started, all I can say is you should have held out for more? The reason they have to pay so much is because young folk place a higher value on their personal time than us old fogies, and I don't think that's a bad thing. Finally, the government wants you to stop driving, they aren't going to pay you to drive. [/QUOTE]
