[QUOTE="SmithBarney, post: 2007187, member: 709"] No they are now taking all but one week of vacation for payment of FMLA time off. Basically if you take time off for say FMLA(insert family issue here), you have to burn all your vacation(sans one week) previously you could/would take your FMLA as unpaid if you chose. They are still following the law.. what they are trying to do away with are those who may/may not be abusing the system of taking FMLA and still being able to keep vacations, thus knocking down the amount of manpower FDX has at it's disposal. Honestly I've used FMLA once, and it was not fun taking time off with no pay, not sure who would "desire" that. yes I had the option of using my vaca weeks, but those were needed for another very important event. This coupled with the new 45 day(disability) = lose your route BS that they just started got a bunch of attention at our STA.... Remarkably 5 senior couriers had injury/surguries the week after thanksgiving... came back roughly at day 45, Jan 4th [/QUOTE]
