why would you be against street protests. thats exactly one of the things you should do if your unhappy.
no no. the employer pays the workers and its also the employer who decides whether or not to also raise prices to the consumers.
All I ever wanted from FedEx was enough to have some choices. I would have been happy with $45k on 40hrs a week and would've volunteered for OT to go over $50k. And I understand if those living in expensive areas needed more to support their families. I never expected UPS pay but would've very much liked top pay and would've been happy if they gave it to me in 10 years. Those who want more than that should pursue management. The UPS guys who aren't content with $70k+ I don't quite understand. Especially comparing our benefits.
You're correct, you've shown me you either can't or won't answer the question. You don't want to tell me that they aren't worth 40k, you'd anticipate my next question correctly. The next question would be, Why aren't they worth 40k. You'd end up answering your own question. To answer your 10k red herring, some aren't even worth that.
so how much is the company profiting off them every hour?
Relevance?
People get paid better for skills there is a demand for. And I've seen the Antifa protests. No thanks. I don't want wage slaves either but you guys need to get over this idea that everyone will be equal and we can all live very comfortable lives. Can people be paid better? Depends on the company but companies like FedEx could do better. And now FedEx is doing better because they had to.
The sole purpose of employing ANYONE is to make MORE MONEY for the business OWNER. Anything else is charity.
You work for UPS? How much do you consider fair?
see there you go again with your low expectations. we actually can all live very comfortable lives. we have a failed system which is holding us back with mediocre technology. its 2017 and we should be off big oil by now for example.
How much for what?
then we can get an idea how much they are truly worth.
If that were accurate, you should go into business in competition, and see how much the risk you are taking with your money, is worth.
And whose job is it to distribute it more "efficiently"?
in a democracy, we the people are responsible what kind of economic system or tax system we want.
But if we raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour, how will I know that I'm better than my fellow man?
what do you mean?
But the system we have requires the owner to employ us in order for him to make money. In exchange for making him money we should be paid fairly and he should settle for reasonable wealth. Not strive to be one of the richest in the world while pushing us to accept subsistence pay. It's about balance, and unfortunately the only way FedEx will seek balance is if the employees unionize. But then many union employees demonstrate why companies went offshore because unions too often weren't interested in balance either.
We are not a democracy, I'll answer your dodge. The government is your answer.
Don't believe in straight answers, huh? How much annually do you consider fair pay for a UPS driver working 40 hours a week?
