[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 2490247, member: 24302"] If only it were that simple. The unions of the 60's and 70's constantly pushed for more and more. Heck, look at the constant grumbling of the UPS drivers on this forum. There's plenty of blame to go around, it's never just one side. As long as they keep their word, big if, then I think FedEx has gone a long way towards correcting the pay problem with the new pay plan. Too late for me, and they really did screw over a lot of people. But the young couriers will have decent pay. But look how many here speak of the plan. It's not enough according to them. If Express still drove the big stepvans and handled tons of boxes like we used to pre-Ground they'd have a case. But what we do now is pretty fairly covered by the new plan IMO. Same with welfare. Millions of people are used to the gov't meeting their needs. Fine for a stop gap measure between jobs, but not a lifestyle. Bottom line companies should strive to provide a living wage and people should accept that wage without constantly pushing for unrealistic high pay. Higher pay should reflect achievement, not be an inalienable right. [/QUOTE]
