[QUOTE="Brown287, post: 651398, member: 14940"] Maybe what should be discussed at the next contract is wage increases for employees who live and work in areas that the cost of living is far over what the national average is. No disrespect but the driver in Montana or Texas is living a far different life style then the drivers in New York and California. We all work that is correct but some of us experience two intirelly diffrent worlds. I once ran into a driver from Georgia at a winery that I have a pickup at. He was out here on vacation with his wife and we got to talking about the cost of living and he couldnt believe what homes cost out here in California. The funny thing is that I was trying to explain to him that 500,000 was almost half what it cost here just 2 years ago. Anyways the thing that he said to me that Ill never forget is "out here it seems that your job isnt all that good of a job". I was flabber gassed, my UPS brother from Georgia basically just dissed my job. Then I realized what he was trying to say and it was in regards to what it cost to live here and what our pay is and well like he said in Georgia he lives on a lake with a boat and goes on wine tasting vacation with his wife. Something to think about when your complaining about our wages. [/QUOTE]
