Grandfather never had it this good
Most people today work only two-thirds as many hours as their
grandfather did. Yet they earn at least three times as much each day.
If, for example, your grandfather had been on
Union Oil s payroll in 1890, he’d have put in an average week of at least
60 hours. For which he'd have received about $2.25 a dav.
If — for comparison — you had been with us last year,
you d have averaged $2.25 also. But for an hour's work, not a day’s!
.And you’d have worked only 40 hours a week.
How can Union Oil, or any company, pay more monev for less
time on the job? Because new and better toots and engineering have radically
increased a man s capacity to produce as they shortened his work week.
For every worker at Union Oil there is now available an average of
$77,000 worth of these improved tools — trucks, pipelines, wells, refineries.
0 This gives each employee 340% more to work with than in 1890.
1 For the most part these tools have been purchased with money the
■ shareholder-omters have plowed back into tlid business out of profits.
ill Who profits from profits? Everyone does! That’s whv
you get so much more out of life than your grandfather did.
