[QUOTE="quadro, post: 672033, member: 12850"] I forgot that you like the ad hominem arguments. :wink2: Anyway, the ethical obligation under PSP is to look after the people because, as you correctly stated, they are the most important part of the company. That means looking after the people that are there. All of them. PT and FT. Sometimes to do that, the last thing you want to do is hire another person. Sometimes, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. You cannot please 100% of the people 100% of the time. As long as the decisions that are made are in the best interest of the majority of the employees, then that's probably the right decision. Unfortunately, it sometimes means that someone gets the short end of the stick. I've been that someone before and it sucks. But I understood why and I realized it wasn't personal and it wasn't about screwing me over, it was about doing the fairest thing for all involved. Remember, "people" is plural, not singular and that often means that a person doesn't get what he or she wants but two people do. Out of those 3 people, two of them are saying how fair FedEx is and how they did the people thing. One isn't. In the eyes of that one person, FedEx is the devil incarnate. You can feel sorry for that person, you can empathize with that person but ultimately, the decision benefited more people than not and therefore it was a "people" decision. [/QUOTE]
