[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 2739639, member: 24302"] No, I don't hate everything. And after my first rehire was never given the chance to make the money you make. Nowhere close. Not hatred, just the truth. If I hadn't quit in 2013 I would've been an 18 yr employee with the new pay plan and still would probably be looking at another 4-5 yrs to reach what you take for granted. As is after 2.5 yrs after rehired in 2014 I was placed at starting pay with 9 yrs to go. Or I could take the pension. Obviously your situation would be the best to be in. But at my age I'd rather be free from all that than be looking at topping out at 64. The other night I woke up with my toes feeling like they were going to snap off. Diabetes. I've got chest pain. If I die before 60, if lucky I'll make it to 70, would rather face it on my own than dropping dead working for that company. You don't seem to get it but they took advantage of us for their benefit. Just glad I got enough to leave before they shut down that option for most employees. Good luck with your retirement, and you are smart to consider staying active for as long as you can. I can certainly understand your loyalty since it worked out well for you. But you are so wrong about my hating everything, and being miserable. I'm disappointed that a company that I used to believe strongly in cheated me and so many others to make some rich people richer. It makes everything they do to promote FedEx as a people company and a company that cares for various causes come across as self serving B.S.. But it's no longer my problem and with that I'm signing off. Gets old going round and round with people who hate. Good luck and God bless! [/QUOTE]
