[QUOTE="104Feeder, post: 1067112, member: 42554"] Looking at that progression again I just realized that I was only at $12.50 in [I]5 years[/I] while that progression tops out in 4. Seems like an improvement to me. I think the focus should be on combining p/t jobs to create full time ones and reduce the overall number of part time jobs to the absolute minimum. Perhaps we should go back to how we used to load/unload our own package cars (I notice the extended centers still do this). Have people come in and preload then drive, and others drive then unload in areas that aren't large enough for Day/Twilight/Midnight/Preload sorts. Phoenix could absolutely combine those sorts into full time inside jobs as there is already quite a lot of double shifting happening on a regular basis. The Airport could easily be transformed this way also. Our other hubs & Centers: Tempe, Mesa, & Estrella would be perfect for the loader/driver driver/unloader model. Maybe this would adjust the workload a bit and take care of the 9.5 problem too. Start at 0500 off by 1500. Start up at Noon, off by 2200. I think the model of having most every driver start at 9 and work til they drop is antiquated. [/QUOTE]
