just looked at my W2. I made more money this year than last year. Last year, I made more money than the year before. My 401K is also doing great. What are all the problems people are whining about? We’re getting paid pretty well.
Im glad you made more money this year then last year because i made $3000 less. They hired a bunch of dock workers and freight is down at our barnjust looked at my W2.

If you have dependents/children most of your extra cash will be offset by higher insurance copays if you are your dependents are sick or injured.just looked at my W2.

Of course we should be paid more. Are we paid enough? I have no idea. What is enough? I do know that despite all the negative Nelly’s fear mongering, every year since XPO bought us, I’ve made more money.You are correct.
Should we be paid more? Are we paid enough for how much and how hard we work?

Sorry to hear that. Freight is up at our barn.Im glad you made more money this year then last year because i made $3000 less. They hired a bunch of dock workers and freight is down at our barn
Since I made more money, I’m supposed to tell my TM I don’t want a raise? You’re going to have to connect the dots for me on that fuzzy logic.Tell your tm that your happy with ur $$$ that way we all will never get a raise.
So far, my family is healthy. If anyone is sick or injured in a major way, most families will be in financial trouble. It’s the sad state of health care in this country.If you have dependents/children most of your extra cash will be offset by higher insurance copays if you are your dependents are sick or injured.
Maybe if the guys in the south were paid properly, my additional insurance costs would be offset.
So far for you...sadly, these impact more people than just yourself.So far, my family is healthy. If anyone is sick or injured in a major way, most families will be in financial trouble. It’s the sad state of health care in this country.
I’m well aware of this. The truth is it has nothing to do with XPO. I know families that have good jobs and they’ve lost everything when someone is diagnosed with cancer. The health care system in this country sucks. Nobody wants to actually fix it.So far for you...sadly, these impact more people than just yourself.
I have coworkers with health issues, some with children that have health issues that will pay an huge portion of their salary out to cover these costs. It's easy to look and see how well you or I have it, but there are many who do not.
I know we'd be better off with better insurance and compensation.
As we are self insured, any monies we pay for copays, deductibles, and premiums go directly back into the company coffers.
The higher your copays are, the slower you pay your deductible down, therefore costing you more money and saving the company more money. It's all a shell game.
It has EVERYTHING to do with them. They decide what insurance to offer us.I’m well aware of this. The truth is it has nothing to do with XPO.

Has XPO reduced our benefits? Yes. Is XPO the only one to do it? No. As I said, I know a lot of people in other industries and they’ve all had health care reduced. We live in the best country in the world, yet somehow a single medical diagnosis can ruin everything a family has worked for. XPO is by no means innocent, but they’re not the cause.It has EVERYTHING to do with them. They decide what insurance to offer us.
Back when I started, we had company paid insurance for all. Sure, we made an bit less than other lines, but we paid 0 for insurance.
What you make in a year sure looks good on paper until you look at the other changes.
Don't get sick or hurt either without PTO saved up. You'll go a month without a check.
I'm glad your W-2 looks good though.
But does that mean XPO must follow suit or could they provide better benefits to attract new talent and keep the present employees pleased? Just look at the healthcare we offer new drivers. It's embarrassing.Has XPO reduced our benefits? Yes. Is XPO the only one to do it? No. As I said, I know a lot of people in other industries and they’ve all had health care reduced.

Are you talking about XPO or the Teamsters?Where does it stop when does it end ? The executive officers take tens of millions of dollars every year into their pockets but tell the ones who do the work we need to raise your health premiums and co pays and keep your pay raises to a minimum.
