[QUOTE="dvalleyjim, post: 3205643, member: 36471"] Economics 101, when the economy grows employers need more workers, more competition for workers means high wages and perks. FedEx's crony, illegal and fake driver scam doesn't comprehend this natural fact of economics. Thus people will not except the low wages, long hours, no breaks, overtime, or lunches, and no benefits at FedEx Ground. Ground will suffer but be slow to remedy this. After many service failures they will begrudgingly offer their ISPs better deals hoping that it will trickle down to drivers. Since many ISPs operate on such narrow margins anyway it will probably be a long term problem in a robust economy of 3-5 percent growth. Hate to break it to the snowflakes but the government mandating 15/hr min. wage does not increase wages. Competition for workers between companies does. Oops, competition is the even playing field? Wow, eco 101! [/QUOTE]
