I will also say in a dozen years at FedEx the flexes and LCAs I've worked with have all been outstanding. If being an LCA means you get nothing extra, then the only guys who will do the jobs are the Barney Fife types who want a little authority. I like our system. I say give them a raise.
Everything you just wrote is spot on.

They do need a raise. Only good experiences.

My point, lost in my poor choice of words, is we should be able to bid our training dates. I don't wish to degrade what others have now.
