Six months of tiny increases won't amount to much, but it helps FedEx's corporate image.
$1.5 billion in facilities at our Indy hub -- that was already planned anyway.
$1.5 billion voluntary contribution to the pension fund. Sounds like a good reason to dump ours.

So you are disparaging raises for our coworkers because they won't amount to much? How bout you let it play out and let them decide if it amounts to much or not?
Got news for you Tony, FedEx DOES have a good corporate image because they ARE a good corporate citizen, and they provide a living for hundreds of thousands of families around the world.
