ridiculous - they want a 70% raise
I was lurking the UPS reddit when they wanted a raise.
This guy was disappointed at how small the raise they got was.
Someone replied to him saying, that’s how haggling works.
He replied back saying,
“If we wanted THIS much, we should have ASKED for WAY more (because when haggling/negotiating they’re going to meet somewhere in the middle)”
So maybe they’re asking for 70%; but they’re realistically hoping for ~50%.
They were already offered 50% raise over 6 yr. They turned it down. They really do want 80% raise when they already make over 6figures. Its greed
Oh.
Thanks for the clarification :)
