[QUOTE="air_upser, post: 58853"] Thanks for everyones input and opinions so far. All of you have made excellent points. While our fuel costs have risen, so has our competitions, so thats mute point. Both management and labor has seen a reduction in their take home pay. With the increases in insurance, taxes, gas, and utilities the past 3 years, Ive actually seen a reduction in pay myself. Simply getting a bigger increase is not necessarily the answer. Hopefully our Government will get gas prices, healthcare costs, and taxes under control. How UPS and the Teamsters work that out in 2007 is anybodys guess. Im all for profit-sharing but there are so many details to workout. What percentage does each job description get? How do years of service be reflected? What if there is no profit? Etc etc. And how would that all tie in with individual performance? I also agree we are looking at numbers too much. Ive seen this before and the outcome was not pretty. It takes managers with some spine to stand up for whats right for the business and the customer. So Clever, have you been turning down sup positions? I wouldnt judge a person on their posts to a website, but my first impression is you would make a good one. [/QUOTE]
