[QUOTE="1Simplemann, post: 2257189, member: 63411"] Mr Fed Ex guy. Here's the differences. $35 hr plus OT and plenty of it. My gross for the last 6th months was 53K. In August we get another raise. $1 hr??? not sure but we get a raise. Next 6 months will be probly 55K. so 106-108 k for the same type of work you do. We get almost $9 hr towards our retirement. When I'm eligible to retire at 58 , it should be $4500 month and should be about $100 a month extra for every yr that I continue after age 58. We don't have to pay into a fund to get a vacation. Most ridiculous thing I ever heard of! Fred's laughing to the bank on that one! I get 5 weeks of vacation. 4 personal paid days off, 6 sick days and holiday pay on most of the major holidays. I have an insurance plan that cover myself and spouse I pay NOTHING for it although sometimes we have a $20 co pay. Peanuts. Oh and I have a UNION behind me that generally has my back when the company tries to screw you over. I have job security and can't be fired or harassed although UPS does try this to those that let them. We also have grievance procedure that handles differences of opinion. Which means A LOT because most big corperations just wanna "take" from there employees. From what I gather from the FEG guys here locally, if I add it all up, we(I) make about 5-6 times what you make although it sounds like you make a little more. So you do the math., if your going to sacrifice your body why not get paid for it? [/QUOTE]
