[QUOTE="Macbrother, post: 1076488, member: 42759"] Per the national master, you are making 11.87 after 4 years. To make $20 at 10, you'd need a $1.35 raise / year. We don't get anything near that. Here's another reality check for you: Do you think Wal-mart employees do anywhere near the amount of work or are under anywhere near the constant pressure of making production that that UPS employees are? Do you think they're yelled at or threatened because they had one misload? Do you think they deal with anything like the chaos we deal with on a daily basis? Are their hours anywhere near as extreme and inflexible as ours? I happen to work beside some of the finest, hard-working, intelligent men and women I know. To claim I or they wouldn't "make it" at costco's knowing the [IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG] we put up with is insulting. But if you want to reduce the capability of your preload and future drivers, if you [B]do[/B] want to fill it with people that wouldn't make it at Costco's, by all means continue letting UPS's starting wage fall further and further behind inflation.
