[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 751663, member: 24302"] Besides CSA's accepting Ground at counter, couriers bring in any handed to them and place on cart in warehouse. Those aren't being scanned by CSA'S. Ground guy comes by and grabs them. I used to stop at Ground station to pup any Express left on counter for us. You may be right about the above, just not seeing it locally. That being said I'm beginning to believe that it's not FedEx's intent to shift freight over to Ground. I'm betting the plan is to have PTer's run morning sort and deliver P1. FTer's will come in later, thus eliminating OT. Not seeing FedEx talking to Ground contractors about hiring more drivers, unless they are all in on a secret plan. Would seem more likely they want to grow Ground by taking business from UPS. The PTer's in the morning scenario is based on them opening the NC hub which would make the entire system faster and more efficient. If they actually do this and eliminate OT they may actually come up with better hourly pay, although without the OT we won't be better off. I'm worried it's their goal to eliminate OT without any real increase in pay since their priority seems to be to increase profits above all else. Whatever they decide to do they have a responsibility to stockholders to act prudently. Drastic measures will probably only happen if that's their only alternative. [/QUOTE]
