[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 945184, member: 24302"] Which is why FedEx only grudgingly gives small raises after stretching their employees as thin as possible. But they only do it to slow the rate of turnover. As for Ground, take a poll of drivers and I'd bet you'd fine that the vast majority of them are only there because it's the only thing they could find. FedEx knows that it's a seller's market in this economy and are taking full advantage. That's the exploitation. And that's a major factor in why our economy is so weak. Companies are sitting on alot of cash while pushing their employees to accept less and less. If the employees can't afford to spend much then sales are flat. And if the economy improves it won't last long because only a small segment of the population is benefitting. But I guess that's fine as long as you get your's, huh? [/QUOTE]
