[QUOTE="FedexCares, post: 5574231, member: 50129"] Hate to break it to you but express really hasn’t paid a living wage for a number of years. As far as compensation goes it’s not a lot different than ground. Express does provide some crappy benefits that’s really the only difference these days. In the market level near me (lowest) express drivers start at something like 16.95 an hour. Almost identical to McDonald’s and other fast food jobs in the area. That’s the type of job it is sadly. Going to ground won’t be a huge change other than having to lug around much bigger packages on average. It’s a race to the bottom for most companies in the US today. Through years of legislation, union busting (spearheaded by the federal govt in a lot of situations) and outright propaganda on news networks getting stupid people to vote against their best interests year after year, companies have never been in a better position to screw over their labor and the govt will even have their backs while they do it.
