[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5906083, member: 24302"] I quit FedEx at 11 years with $13.50 hr topped out income. It was $13.11 but got 39¢ raise several months before quitting 4 years and 4 months after previous raise. They came up with some good adjustments after I quit. Came back 17 months later at $10.85hr starting pay with assurances I'd top out in 7-8 years. Quit again just shy of 15 more years making $18.17hr. Top out was over $24hr at that point. I hung in there for the pension. But got married and quit at 51. Came back less than a year later and worked until I was 55. Of course you'll say I never should've quit but I was frustrated with the lies. They terminated the traditional pension about 5 years before I quit the second time. I get $1840 a month because I took an "accelerated" pension in order to quit at 55. At 67 it drops to $117 a month. It's ok but I'd be doing better if I hadn't quit and hadn't got married. Live and learn. [/QUOTE]
