[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 5207910, member: 49065"] Here is a question for you: Do you believe that the partners on the executive board are also overpaid? Study their qualifications and backgrounds should they be collecting on average 10 million a year. We had package car drivers that had master’s degree over the years in far tougher majors. Do you remember the term (Industrial Athlete) ... that was what we were called several years ago... Do you have a problem when a star pro athlete gets a 150 million dollar contract...? One of the reasons that the Athlete gets that reimbursement for their services is that they have such a short time physically to perform at that demanded position ...most of us hourlies will leave our employment with some form of permanent disability due to the demands of our physical labor over 30 some years. The attrition rate of the hourly workforce is real, this has been planned from the day we hire in...a real money savings if they can bust you up before you are eligible for a pension, than they will pay you peanuts for your service and have Medicare pay for your injuries. Our raises have been subpar for such a long time that even our negotiating committees mimic the Company’s stance that we are overpaid cry babies and we should be thankful for the job, so take it or leave it.
