No, I wasn't thinking that at all....was thinking more along the lines of EX396's response....Local competitive wages probably played a bigger part in their decisions than just local trucking wages.
Also, as I responded to CT on another thread, if the turnover rate at your location is low and the ability to hire qualified drivers is high, that's probably another sign that your wages are more in line with where they should be for your area...right or wrong is debatable although neither are my opinion.....As I've stated before, I'd have no problem with only two pay scales...one for NYC, Boston, Chi, SF, etc...(centers with extremely high COL), and one for everyone else.
