Ok but how much is enough?
The total payout for the Fedex Cup is 70 million dollars. The overall winner gets 15 million. Still not a huge number when divided amongst the number of worldwide employees, however if you consider only the North American employees the amount would be more substantial. Especially as the US audience is the targeted advertising venue. It’s been 18 months since our last raise so anticipation is high for a decent amount. The corporate windfall from the tax reductions is not a one and done deal. We are still waiting to hear news as to any sharing with employees of the amount saved for this year.
You’re wasting your time trying to reason with know it all’s who’ve never ran a business, much less owned one...it’s why they’re truck drivers!!
It’s already been said that there won’t be a sharing of this year’s tax windfall, that money was spent on shoring up Express and the whole TNT/cyber attack debacle that took place earlier this year....not to mention the layoffs/buyouts that took place and the fact that management didn’t receive a raise this year either.
Who said there won’t be a sharing of the tax windfall? Was it someone from corporate or drivers on Truckingboards? Also as to management raises I thought they were just foregoing their bonuses. Haven’t heard of them not getting a raise.
I asked the question concerning the tax windfall to upper management myself back in March or April and was “officially” given the answer during one of our later monthly meetings. You are correct, my bad...meant to say bonuses, not raises.
Lol man, your rough
While I do EXPECT some (continued) sharing of the windfall, in some form (wage, 401k, something), the often overlooked purpose and benefit of tax reduction is the massive number of jobs created. Lowest unemployment EVER among ALL groups. More Americans working means more Americans paying taxes. More working than EVER before.
