Express Pay Increase?

[Serf]

You guys stay at express and hope for the carrot every year. I’ll take my 140k at brown suckas

140 gross to be gone 12 hrs a day(maybe more, factor in commute) is ok. Meaning; it ain’t bad. But what you have to put in is a lot of blood money.

I'm surprised you use Amazon-at all. Every time you buy something from Bezos, you're helping his empire. You're also helping the Washington Post that he owns. I will actually pay extra for an item just to not buy from Amazon.

Walmart isn't an empire? General Motors isn't an empire? Bass Pro isn't an empire? All places I do business with. I know nothing about Bezos or the Washington Post. I don't dwell on the possible negatives like most on here and I don't study the politics or the views of other people. Not my concern.

What do you consider early? I'm hoping for 55. 60 at the latest.

You got in right good for you. You saw all the takebacks. You rub it in our face. Please continue to give advice on retirement plans/pension advice as we have far less than you.

Typical whiner. Make excuses as to why you can't do something instead of taking the steps to accomplish something.

They might cut wages. Weed out older employees.

Contrary to what many people think, FedEx likes having a certain amount of older employees. Older employees with decent pay and cushy routes don’t vote for unions.

There aren't going to be many of those people left in the next few years. Unless you mean the 60-64 yr olds my station keeps hiring and giving rural/sweep type routes so they can spend all day doing < 20 stops a day in 8hrs. It would be cheaper if FedEx paid their insurance premiums and told them not to show up for work.

You don't know anything about Bezos or the Washington Post? I'm surprised you don't know about politics either because you used to have Trump as your avatar. I figured you wouldn't like Bezos or the Washington Post. Never mind then.

What I'm seeing is the majority of older employees are so disappointed in what Fedex has become and how it treats its employees and customers, that they would gladly vote a union in. On the other hand, new-hires are much less likely to want to rock the boat. Just my two cents.

It’s my understanding 25 yrs at 55. Or 30 at any age. 4700-5400$ a month and medical. Better than the old military system 20 yrs active duty 50% of your base pay rank. Plus any disability payments & cola increase with medical. Still, both hard.

What union?

Anyway, cut their pay, bring in fresh, low paid meat, boost the stock price.

Union what, that’s what Ground is for , any talk of union and all packages diverted to Ground.

 

[It will be fine]

From a Times article about Amazon warehouses. Sounds familiar. High turnover is viewed as safer than disgruntled veteran workers.

UPs pay would contradict that theory..

I think the average teamster is a perfect example of expending as little energy as possible. Union workers are the worst if you’re trying to run a company.

This way we can go to his grave and keep it fertilized with plenty of liquid nitrogen. The fertilizer analysis might vary a little bit depending on the applicator and how much beer he drank prior to the application. But still it's all natural fertilizer.

I'd agree with the caveat that it's more true when the replacements are easy to find and the job is easy to learn.
