[QUOTE="quadro, post: 581102, member: 12850"] Sorry, my mistake. I thought you were using current year pay. Not sure why I thought that as you did say averages. Not quibbling. Just want to know correct facts. If accuracy isn't important then I've got some "facts" to share. :happy2: Maybe so but seeing as the biggest issues seem to be pay and pension, I'd say that dollars and cents are the primary drivers in peoples' decisions. And it's the emotional reaction that worries me. That's not the way to make this decision. While I respect your position on this, do you honestly believe that the majority of employees will base their decision on what is fundamentally right or will it be based on what's in it for them? As I said upthread, you missed the additional percentage. In this case it would be between 2 - 5% per year at least through 2013 and possibly longer. This would be in addition to the 8%. Regardless of the amount of difference that makes, it is significant enough that it should be included. Excluding it just distorts the facts. My point is simply that I believe dollars and cents are primary factors in this. Let's face it, FedEx employees unhappy with FedEx aren't saying "let's get a union in here so I can work as hard as a UPS driver". Given that, when people are making their decision based on money, any distortion of the facts has the potential to cause them to make a misinformed decision. Perhaps they'll get lucky and the decision will still be the right one but I hate to see people just crossing their fingers and hoping for the best. [/QUOTE]
